Pol Pot radio broadcasts

Radio Australia

Transcripts of radio broadcasts made during the Khmer Rouge regime in the 1970s have been handed to a Cambodian organisation, which could strengthen evidence against former senior regime leaders facing trial for crimes against humanity.

According to the Mekong Times, the transcripts include speeches of Khmer Rouge leader Pol Pot and other surviving senior leaders. They were intercepted by the US government's Foreign Broadcast Information Service.
