PHNOM PENH, July 12 (Xinhua) -- Major opposition Sam Rainsy Party (SRP) and the Cambodia Association for Protection of Journalists (CAPJ) here Saturday condemned the murder of 47-year-old veteran reporter Khim Sambo and his son.
"When one who dares to write or argue against those with absolute power is assassinated, the perpetrators behind the killing are never found or tried according to the law," said a SRP statement, adding that killers of opposition politicians in the past were never arrested.
CAPJ said in its statement that the killing of a Cambodian journalist during the campaign period was a threat to dissemination of information and created a fearful atmosphere for journalists.
Sambo was a part-time reporter of Cambodian-language newspaper the Khmer Conscience News. He and his 22-year-old son were gunned down here Friday and later died at hospital.
Sambo used to write articles about corruption of senior officials at the Cambodian government.
The murder has been the worst crime so far during Cambodia's general election month, which started in June and will end on July 27.
