A LAWYER for Prime Minister Hun Sen plans to submit a request to Phnom Penh Municipal Court officials today for the speedy collection of 8 million riels (US$1,904) owed by opposition lawmaker Mu Sochua in connection with a defamation case involving his client.
On June 2, the Supreme Court upheld the Sam Rainsy Party lawmaker’s defamation conviction, handed down by the Municipal Court last August, as well as an order that she pay 8 million riels in compensation and 8.5 million riels (US$2,023) in fines.
The Appeal Court upheld the Municipal Court ruling last October.
