Cambodia convicts opposition figures in mass trial - DW News
A court in Phnom Penh has jailed dozens of Cambodian opposition figures. US-Cambodian lawyer Theary Seng and other government critics have been sentenced to years in prison on charges of treason and incitement. Before her sentence was passed on Tuesday, Seng stood outside the court, dressed as Lady Liberty in a light green gown and a crown with "Freedom" written on it. She was seen shouting "free the political prisoners."
