Not very long ago, we reported the nearly astonishing news that The Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia had charged Nuon Chea with crimes against humanity, and that it appeared some Justice might actually be dispensed to surviving KR honchos.
Well, that may still be the case, but it's not going to be without some traditional Cambodian shenanigans going on.
The UN has issued a report which criticizes the tribunal for hiring unqualified staff, paying them too much, and accepting kickbacks from said unqualified appointments. The report goes on to recommend that the UN pull out of the proceedings unless changes are made.
In response, the Cambodians have called the audit an "unbalanced account" and its recommendations "out of proportion".
Sad, but typical...
