Ten activists nabbed near CNRP HQ

Ten coup plotters were arrested on Tuesday in the capital’s Chak Angre Leu commune for supporting “acting president” Sam Rainsy, within the area of the Supreme Court-dissolved Cambodia National Rescue Party’s (CNRP) headquarters.

Rainsy, who lives abroad, has consistently called on Cambodians and the armed forces to stage a coup after he announced his “planned return” to Cambodia on November 9.

Phnom Penh Municipal Police chief Sar Thet said on Wednesday that the police detained 10 security guards from CNRP headquarters and seized documents related to the plot to topple the government.
