In the early morning, I feel so shock by watching photos of the forced eviction of residents from their home. These photos I received by mail from Sokleng RIN, working with Pact-Cambodia. The forced eviction took place at around 4am on November 02, 2007 April 20, 2007 in Chong Chruoy village, Chruoy Changva Spean Chea Commune, Russey Keo district, Phnom Penh Sihanoukville. Right now, I just share these photos with all of you about the brutal actions on people. The people’s forced eviction in Russey Keo district, please click here.

Vutha, these photos are not from the Chruoy Chanva eviction but the Spean Chea commune (Sihanoukville) eviction whichtook place on April 20, 2007. More info here: http://www.licadho.org/album/view_photo.php?cat=36.
Regarding the Chruoy Chanva eviction, authorities blocked access to ngo workers & media (probably learning that pictures like the ones you just posted are spreading fast). More info here: http://www.licadho.org/articles/20071107/67/index.html
Thanks for raising awareness on the land grabbing situation in Cambodia.
