Cambodian Deputy Prime Minister and Defence Minister Tea Banh said he has no idea when Thai Patriots Network coordinator Veera Somkwamkid and his secretary Ratree Pipatanapaiboon will be granted a royal padon.
He said this in an interview with the Bangkok Post in Phnom Penh.
Gen Tea Banh said procedural steps must be taken in seeking a royal pardon for the convicts, adding that he did not know if Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen had forwarded the petition for a royal pardon filed by Mr Veera and Ms Ratree to the king.
Nobody can tell how the decision would be and when they would be released, he added.
“It’s not that anybody can easily ask ask to be released. The Cambodian justice process cannot be interfered with,” he said.
