Prison Rules Book for Foreign Inmates in Cambodia

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

1,000 booklets on rules and regulations to be doled to foreign inmates in Kingdom

The International Committee of the Red Cross yesterday handed over more than 1,200 booklet copies about rules and regulations to the Directorate General of Prisons in a bid to distribute to foreign inmates in Cambodia’s prisons.

It said 1,200 booklets about prisons’ internal regulations have been printed in Thai, English, Vietnamese and Mandarin.

These booklets will be doled out to foreign prisoners so they have access to the necessary set of norms guiding their daily lives in the Kingdom’s prisons.

Chyngyz Rayimbekov, ICRC’s Deputy Protection Coordinator in Cambodia, said foreign inmates constitute a vulnerable group especially due to language barrier issues.

He said foreign prisoners need to be taken care of like female prisoners, minors, elderly detainees or those with disabilities.

Mr Chyngyz said the number of foreign inmates makes up five percent of the Kingdom’s prisoners who need access to rules and regulations to navigate their lives.

Is this outfit genuine?? Judging by the English it looks very dodgy.

This is the International Committee of the Red Cross, a much more impressive website.

The International Red Cross plays a very dangerous game of also sanctifying parallel national bodies,
Hence you get the PM's wife, as head of the Cambodian Red Cross, using the brand for blatant electoral propaganda.
Trashes the brand in my book.
