Exceptionally, Ka-set was unable last week to publish its daily report on the hearings in Duch’s trial for reasons beyond our control. Please accept our apologies. These reports will be published at a later date on Ka-set’s website. But for now, please enjoy a selection of captured moments from the August 31st to September 2nd week with these photographs by John Vink.

it sends a chill up through my spin to my head when this tormented woman finally found her brother, very sadly at Tuol Sleng. My heart is out to her and family. His senseless death and other 2 million Cambodia deaths are aching for justice just like the livings.
