26 August 1978

Jack Anderson writes in @washingtonpost that Cambodian refugees are sometimes sent back by Thai border police. Refugees speak of corrupt & brutal refugee camp commanders, who regularly beat them when drunk. Some refugees who sought work outside the camps were shot.

In its submission to the @UN Human Rights Commission, @Amnesty notes that since 1975 no official Khmer Rouge statement has made any reference to the existence of law, judicial institutions or procedures guaranteeing the rights of individual citizens in Cambodia. https://t.co/6AqPZzPlI7
