Opposition Candlelight Party vice president Son Chhay returned from Australia to Cambodia on Sunday and will face lawsuits lodged over his claim of vote-stealing, including a $1-million suit brought against him by the ruling CPP.
In brief, Preak Sihanouk provincial governor demands inquiry into recent gun violence. Meanwhile, the NEC is suing Son Chhay for defamation, and the apparel giant Adidas has decried police action against labor leaders in Kampong Chhnang.
Candlelight Party vice president Son Chhay is the target of a $1 million complaint by the ruling party, where he is accused of impacting the CPP’s honor during an interview with Washington-based online media Cambodia Daily.
The Interior Ministry said on Wednesday that the Candlelight Party’s appointment of vice president Son Chhay earlier this year failed to follow the party’s own procedures.
Ex-CNRP lawmaker Son Chhay, who requested his political rights be restored by the government last week, has always marched to his own beat, including challenging ruling party and opposition leaders alike, former colleagues and observers say.
