'Killing Fields' Trial: The Hurt, the pain and the Tear
A photographer takes a picture of a live feed of French psychologist Francoise Sironi-Guilbaud and Cambodian Ka Sunbaunat (R), dean of medicine at the university of heath sciences, during the trial of former Khmer Rouge cadre Duch by a U.N.-backed tribunal in the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC) on the outskirts of Phnom Penh September 1, 2009. Psychological experts told the Khmer Rouge tribunal that "denial and disempathy but not mental illness" were at the core of Duch's apparent cruelty. The former head of S-21 was incapable of sympathizing with the thoughts and feeling of detainees yet he remained a sane man who was aware of the seriousness of the crime committed under his watch, Sironi-Guilbaud said, according to local media.REUTERS/Chor Sokunthea
