If youre with us its been nearly forty years now since the camaro rouge murdered around two Million People in cambodia a quarter of the countrys population but today for the first time a un backed court in the capital phnom penh has found two of the regimes leaders guilty of genocide the defendants q some pond and no one shia are already serving life sentences for crimes against humanity. This is a long awaited moment to form a committee rouge leaders known chair and kiff samphan are sentenced to life in prison for genocide by a un backed court. Home. But the chamber has considered the gravity of the crimes including the scale of brutality the number and the vulnerability of the victims for which the accused have been convicted. These two old men the last surviving leaders of the committee rouge already serving life sentences for crimes against humanity but this new verdict is a landmark ruling for the first time it says that the crimes against cambodians vietnamese and cham minorities amounted to genocide delivery of the judgment today in phase two zero zero two is any story in the work of the extraordinary chambers in the courts of cambodia. This court has once again demonstrated that he has the capacity to prosecute and try the most complex cases in accordance with international standards. The cmere rouge under its leader pol pot sought to create a communist utopia by forcibly moving people from the cities to the countryside nearly two million cambodians died from overwork starvation and mass executions during its reign of terror from one thousand nine hundred five to nine hundred seventy nine. Pens museums and memorials detail the sheer horror of the past a past that lingers.

This is an important moment for cambodia its courts recognising that what happened here was indeed genocide. Bring in our Southeast Asia correspondent and heartache in bangkok bastion what more can you tell us about the two men whove just been found guilty of committing genocide. Well terry they were the two most senior figures of the cmere regime who are still alive. Is or was the deputy of the khmer rouge leader former khmer rouge leader pol pot who died in one nine hundred ninety eight and. Was the head of state under the khmer rouge they were both serving life sentences already for crimes against humanity that they were convicted of in an earlier trial but they deny any responsibility. For these for these crimes and they were indicted in this trial with along with two other senior figures of the queer regime but because this is already almost forty years after the end of that regime and the defendants are very old one hundred eighty seven and the other two have died when the trial was still in progress which took it took several several years this trial so they were the last two that could have been or that that could be convicted in this trial. Now these verdicts were a long time in coming the courts work has been controversial hasnt it. It has for one because its been such a long time since the end of the rule cambodia from one hundred seventy five to nine hundred seventy nine so its been almost forty years until these verdicts and also because their critics are saying this should go further that there should be more than more than these two or three people who were convicted of crimes against humanity during that time but cambodian Prime Minister who has been in power for thirty years and who is a former member of the khmer rouge himself he strongly opposes that he says that would destabilize the country and since he wields almost Unlimited Power in cambodia its very unlikely that were going to see more trials go ahead terry. Thank you so much that was our correspondent there talking to us from bangkok. And well have more on the historic ruling in cambodia later in the show well also be talking to a witness in that trial.

Well one thing can be said for so i mean it isnt completely symptomatic for what is going on in the whole of the something people here in south fifty here in kemet feel particularly strongly about is that they are synonymous with an uprising of the right wing yes the far right and he has a very strong showing here yes right marches and demonstrations but ordinary people hearing it didnt know didnt see what was coming and were just a stopped people across the country and beyond that suddenly you saw the far right if tea party marching side by side with neo nazis essentially and that is this phenomenon that ken doesnt want to be seen sunan synonymous and the big question here is how much responsibility for that people will see with the german tonsil when she speaks in the building behind me overall in any hope popularity ratings its just gone up thank you both thank you very much for bringing us up to date there w. s chief Political Editor mikaela cuffed out there talking to us from life say here from ken its rather.

May is also facing a backlash from our own party with hard line breaks and tears seeking to challenge her leadership but in the last couple of hours a key probe regs at voice in teresa mayes top Ministerial Team environment secretary michael gove has confirmed that hes staying in his post and says he has confidence in may yesterday he was reportedly offered the job as new brags that secretary Prime Minister to resign may was tightlipped about that in a radio interview earlier. But i have your foot in the road. Now i dont talk about things they do with to do with the cabinet Cabinet Reshuffle i have to point to the. Secretary hat but always ill be doing that over the course of the next year or so i were a betting man if you were a betting man could i get on the book is and talk about how to michael gove who supports now and i have to say nick ive always made you to sort of rule in my life i dont bet on anything to do with politics right id advise you not to i thought all right well have to work to watch and wait and see ok lets bring in our correspondent in london barrett marsh is standing by there for us so theyre get it was rumored that michael gove would step down too in light of all the developments regarding the briggss deal now hes confirmed that hes staying with to those who support mean for the Prime Minister.

The Prime Minister is desperate to huge and damaging for your deep deep misgivings is update all seem to have a beef with teresa mayes draft breaks a plan. But Business Owners see it differently. Its going to be straightforward and simple if the deal the deal goes along theres going to be some problems. Those problems might look like this a long line of trucks good sitting still costing money in time a disaster for any firm but the current arrangement would give businesses time to adjust to the post briggs it landscape at least until the end of twenty twenty thats because the u.

U. It will still have access to the market but the same access as other countries but certainly at that does not appear to be anything within that three paragraphs that would appear to offer the u.
