Sam Rainsy’s wife faces arrest?

Details are Sketchy
April 1, 2008

File this under “rumors on the Internet,” for now.

Rumor came out as Cambodian ruling party has planned to arrest former Sam Rainsy Party MP Tioulong Saumura, wife of opposition leader Sam Rainsy. This news came out in Phnom Penh as ruling party Cambodian People Party and main opposition party Sam Rainsy Party have prepared for the political crisis between CPP and SRP faceoff at the upcoming election.

Cambodia Daily Newspaper’s letter to the editor accused that she has detained one of the SRP political activist to prevent her leaving to the current ruling party. Accuse made while she wasn’t in Cambodia but government accepted the case of her illegal detention against her party activist that she did not make it.

She is now in Paris and will be back tomorrow, and would get arrested upon her return to Cambodia.

No telling if this is true. But if it is, it sounds like an incredibly bad idea. Stay tuned.
