Cambodia accused of unrelenting crackdown on dissent
Original: Cambodia: Imprisonment of Activists, Politicians, and Journalists Amid Unrelenting Crackdown
Human Rights Watch reports that Cambodian authorities are jailing activists, opposition politicians, and journalists as part of a sustained crackdown on dissent. The rights group says the imprisonments reflect a wider pattern of political repression, and the report is drawing attention to the shrinking space for free expression and opposition politics in the country.
Why now: A major human rights organisation has just published a report highlighting political imprisonments in Cambodia, prompting renewed debate over repression there.
