Phnom Penh (Rasmei Kampuchea Daily/ANN) – The Khmer Rouge tribunal has gone into recess and will resume the trial of three former leaders of the Pol Pot regime on March 12, Rasmei Kampuchea reported Saturday.
The newspaper said the halt to proceedings was to “prepare other work for the court hearing” at the UN-backed Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC).
Court spokesman Neth Pheaktra told the newspaper that the ECCC Acting Director of Administration Tony Kranh Tony and Deputy Director of Administration Knut Rosandhaug would travel to New York early next week.
The tribunal is seeking US$89 million to help fund both its national and international sides in 2012 and 2013.
