Cambodian Laws

The questions of fact, followed by the question of the right are two of the heated discussion of everyday social chaos in Cambodia. Protracted conflicts in the land, political, economic and social, and others are, I think, the images painted on the public every day the media in Cambodia. So how is this country going to resolve these conflicts? What are the mechanisms used for conflict resolution? What causes these conflicts? The following statements attempt to answer these questions. In a simpler and understanding, I would give my argument and elucidation of perspective and the Cambodian context. I would say from the outset that my writing is totally based on opinion, data, policy analysis and legal entities not involved at all.

The police are organized into six sections: safety, traffic, public order, and border and administrative and judicial. While the criminal investigation is designed to operate under the Attorney General, in fact, receive orders from the commander of the national police, public prosecutors of the importance of adequate monitoring of the legal department of the police.

The former police Chief General Hook Lundy has been a political representative is known for loyalty to Prime Minister Hun Sen, the international community had quietly pressed the Prime Minister to remove his police chief for several years, but it was the power structure Hun Sen too central, and he has shown no sign of change in its position. Hook Lundy died in a helicopter crash Nov. 8, 2008.

In addition to the political role of the police, there is ample evidence of involvement in drugs and human trafficking and corruption. On a regular with the police, this is contextualized by noting that the average salary for many police officers is only about 20 USD per month. There are several documented cases of open conflict between the narcotics investigation units and other police involved in trafficking.

Cambodian police used water cannons to control massive crowds during the annual festival in Phnom Penh. On a bridge, with a show of lights along the sides of the Cambodian police found the powerless chronic sprayed 10 000 promoters of the festival (it is an estimate reported in Cambodia, probably much more). None at the other end of the bridge had no idea what was happening, but they heard loud cries. That who was sprayed, and was close to the sides of the bridge was a shock. Shear brutality and stupidity of this procedure to panic the masses, and many were trampled, electric shock, or were simply forced into the sides of the bridge. Cambodian police officials reported 378 deaths.

The police have little respect for the procedure, either in terms of evidence collection or handling of suspects. Police also acquired a reputation for brutality, venality and corruption. Amnesty International reported in June 2005 that torture of prisoners in police custody was widespread. According to the U.S. State Department, local police rarely investigate allegations of crimes against foreign tourists.

There are also laws for marriage and family. There are more laws for women and women in Cambodia are very interesting and generous.
