Khmer Rouge tribunal halts salaries for Cambodians
About 300 Cambodians working at the UN-backed Khmer Rouge tribunal will not be paid this month, and some haven't been paid since October, due to budget problems, a spokesman said Thursday.
The tribunal, which is seeking justice for an estimated 1.7 million people who died of starvation, exhaustion, lack of medical care or torture during the communist Khmer Rouge's 1970s rule, employs 480 people, of which about two-thirds are Cambodian. (AP)
