The Cambodian Supreme Court in Phnom Penh has delayed a verdict in the case of three men charged with attempting to murder western diplomats.
Haji Chiming Abdulazi and Muhammady Alaludim Mading, from Thailand, and Cambodian Sman Esma El have already been sentenced to life by the Municipal Court and the Appeals Court.
The men appealed to the Supreme Court, which has decided to withhold its verdict until March 13.
The men were charged with planning to murder diplomats through suicide bombings and explosions against western embassies in Phnom Penh.
The US, British and Canadian embassies were among those targeted.
The court heard the men had links with the regional terrorist group, Jemaah Islamiyah.
The group's leader, Hambali, was arrested by the Thai authorities in February 2004, after reportedly staying in Cambodia for six months.
