What I am saying here is the truth. And I personally lost some of my relatives, aunts and uncles. And for those brothers in their capacity as leaders, they also lost relatives and family members. - Witness Suong Sikoeun I. OVERVIEW* After the suspension of Monday’s hearing caused by Ieng Sary’s poor health, trial resumed on Tuesday with the conclusion of the testimony of Mr. Ong Thong Hoeung, an intellectual who returned to Cambodia during DK and found himself performing manual labor in re- education camps to “refashion” himself. Next, the Chamber called Mr. Suong Sikoeun, the director of information and propaganda of the Minister of Foreign Affairs (MFA), to resume his testimony. Suong Sikoeun expounded on the MFA, FUNK and GRUNK, and Pol Pot’s role in DK. Giving due consideration to his frail health, the Trial Chamber limited his examination to half-day sessions. To manage the time efficiently, reserve witness Ms. Sa Siek (TCW-609), a cadre who worked at the Ministry of Propaganda during the regime, commenced her testimony. Sa Siek focused on the evacuation of Phnom Penh, the structure of the Ministry of Propaganda, and DK radio broadcasts. Procedural issues arose during the hearing on Wednesday, when the Trial Chamber issued unclear rulings on the introduction of documents to witnesses.

Hearing on Evidence Week 29 ! 27-29 August 2012 Case of Nuon Chea, Khieu Samphan and Ieng Sary Asian International Justice Initiative (AIJI), a project of East-West Center and UC Berkeley War Crimes Studies Center The Party paid greater attention to obeying the discipline rather than paying great attention to human beings or their lives. - Civil Party Em Oeun I. OVERVIEW* Mr. Em Oeun, the third Civil Party to testify in this case, continued his testimony this week. The Defense Teams probed seeming inconsistencies in his testimony, such as the dates and chronology of events he recounted. They also asked about aspects of his medical training background, in light of testimony that was apparently inconsistent with information he had provided on his Victim Information Form. At the end of his testimony, he reasserted the truth of his statements, and pleaded for understanding for his confusion. The Trial Chamber then called in a new witness, Mr. Norng Sophang, the head of a telegram translation unit in Phnom Penh during DK. He provided an interesting account of the highly-secretive communications process between lower levels and the KR leaders, as well as the administrative structure of the telecommunications sector at that time. The hearing on evidence for Case 002/01 adjourned on Wednesday to give way to the fitness to stand trial hearing of Ieng Thirith on 30 and 31 August 2012. II. SUMMARY OF WITNESS TESTIMONIES This week, the OCP and the Defense Teams examined Civil Party Em Oeun. The OCP’s questions sought to clarify Em Oeun’s testimony, particularly on the administrative structure of the Khmer-Soviet Hospital, the arrests conducted there, and the political training at Borei Keila, where the Accused gave lectures on CPK policies.

Mr. Sikoeun’s testimony finally concluded in the early afternoon. The prosecution and civil party lawyers also concluded their questioning of witness Sa Siek during the afternoon session. Present in the courtroom were Khieu Samphan and, initially, Nuon Chea, who retired to the holding cell after the morning session due to health problems.

Suong Sikoeun Questioned by Ieng Sary Defense International Co-Lawyer for Ieng Sary Michael Karnavas again led the examination of Mr. Sikoeun, and began by comparing two comments made by the witness in his August 6 testimony regarding Pol Pot and Ieng Sary.
