After two unsuccessful attempts made the day before, the Defence Team for former Khmer Rouge leader Nuon Chea managed to have their complaint registered on Friday January 9th at the Phnom Penh Municipal Court and therefore have the court open an investigation on the graft allegations concerning Cambodian staff at the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC).
Dutch co-lawyer for Nuon Chea, Michiel Pestman, was received by the Municipal Court Chief Prosecutor Ouk Savuth, who immediately appointed a prosecutor to deal with the case. "He gave us the impression that he was going to do something with it. He now has two months to decide if the complaint will be followed up or not. If our request is rejected, we will refer the matter to the Court of Appeal", the lawyer commented shortly after his meeting with Ouk Savuth.
