Cambodia’s justice system is being criticised after three foreign nationals were sentenced to eight years in jail under anti-terrorism laws.
Last year, Cambodian police arrested three men who allegedly sent a letter to the Australian, British and American embassies in Phnom Penh, threatening a terrorist attack.
Further investigation indicates the letter warned the embassies about four refugees from India and Burma, accusing them of links to Al Qaeda, and said they were planning an attack on the embassies.
Six signatures – with first names only – ended the letter.
Last April, police arrested and charged three of the supposed letter writers under anti-terrorism laws.
