1/4 The abduction in Phnom Penh on June 4 of Thai political activist Wanchalearm Satsaksit bears the fingerprints of Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen who is an expert in such acts of state terrorism.
2/4 As leader of the Cambodian opposition, I have myself been the target of several attacks which have cost dozens of my colleagues and sympathizers their lives.
3/4 More recently, Hun Sen has publicly threatened to have me abducted while in exile abroad. I have informed the French police of Hun Sen’s criminal intentions. It’s possible that the French authorities have dissuaded the brutal dictator from carrying out his threat.
4/4 But in #Cambodia, rather than protecting political refugees from neighbouring countries, Hun Sen has no qualms about arresting them. The deal in this case probably involves reciprocal action against Cambodians living in #Thailand who oppose the Hun Sen regime. #SamRainsy
