Recent Developments at the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia: June 2011

This Open Society Justice Initiative report examines recent events at the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia, as it faces a worsening crisis of public confidence.

The report examines events surrounding the decision by the court's two investigating judges to end their investigation into its third proposed case (Case 003), and calls on the United Nations to investigate the operations of the court. It also reviews developments in Case 002, against the four top surviving Khmer Rouge leaders, due to open on June 27, and the appeal of Kaing Guek Eav, alias Duch, in March.

It is the latest in a series of regular Justice Initiative publications offering news, analysis, and recommendations on the tribunal.
