A Thai national has been sentenced to 20 years in prison in Cambodia.
In a hearing last week, Suphap Vong Pakna confessed to planting at least five explosive devices along the Cambodia-Thailand border, saying Thai soldiers paid him to do so.
Pakna’s lawyer says his client received a fair trial.
[Sam Sokong, Vong Prakna’s Atttorney]:"I think he is getting a fair judgment according to the evidence and his confession, because the court reduced the jail term from 30 to life imprisonment to 20 years in prison based on our terror law, article 75."
The 39-year-old was arrested in February of last year after he allegedly entered Cambodian territory and laid landmines.
