Along with the repeated charge by the opposition party against Hun Xen’s regime of being behind the murder of Chea Vichea, the former president of the Free Trade Union of Workers in the Kingdom of Cambodia, Khieu Kanharith, mouthpiece of the accused government, reacted by saying that the opposition still try to use Chea Vichea’s ghost for its political gain.

In the attempt to project the documentary “Who killed Chea Vichea?” in the evening of 01 May 2010, during the May Day celebration, Thach Setha, a Phnom Penh city councilor from the SRP and President of the Khmer Kampuchea Krom Community Association, told reporters near the gate of Wat Langka Pagoda – the spot where Chea Vichea was murdered – that the government shouldn’t be scared about the truth, and if the government ban the projection of the movie “Who killed Chea Vichea?”, then it means that “the government does not recognize the truth and it could be behind this murder also” as the family of the victim is still badly hurt because if the murder perpetrators cannot be found then the government should tell them about the investigation into this case.

Thach Setha indicated also that the government should not ban the projection of this movie. He added that the government should show the investigation report, and furthermore, Heng Pov also confessed in this case, therefore, the government should not evade and it should let the public know about the details of this case.
