The Union of Journalist Federations of Cambodia (UJFC) on Wednesday called on the Stung Treng Provincial Court to apply the Press Law in a case involving a Ratanakkiri province parliamentarian and a TV journalist.
Lawmaker Bou Lam has sued PNN reporter Lorn Vanna for defamation, demanding $160,000 in compensation, in relation to a land dispute in Ratanakkiri province’s Veun Sai district.
He referred his complaint to the Stung Treng Provincial Court after the Ratanakkiri Provincial Court rejected it.
