the day's other news.
the judges at the khmer rouge
tribunal in cambodia
are about to deliver a verdict
on the genocide charges
against the two leaders
of khmer rouge, nuon chea and khieu
samphan.
they are accused of carrying out
a policy of targeting
and eliminating two ethnic
minorities in the country.
the bbc‘s jonathan
head is in bangkok.
what is the latest on this?
were expecting a verdict later
today. these charges are part of a
trial that were split into, because
this process has taken so long.
we've had a number of senior khmer
rouge leaders die of old age before
the trials were concluded or they
can be brought to trial. these are
the only two senior leaders to be
ever brought to trial. they were
found guilty of crimes against
humanity back in 201a. so they are
already serving life sentences.
these are charges of genocide. a lot
of people refer to the mass killings
