CNRP to hold People’s Congress defying ban

27 March 2014

The opposition Cambodia National Rescue Party (CNRP) will not be allowed to hold the People’s Congress at the Freedom Park on March 30, but is granted permission to hold grenade attack anniversary, said official. However, CNRP said they would hold the congress, ignoring the government’s ban.

Phnom Penh City Hall, said the Phnom Penh authorities could not allow the opposition to hold the People’s Congress at the Freedom Park on March 30 because the cases of the recent violent clashes on January 2-3 are being investigated by the court. The CNRP, however, announced its stance to hold the rally despite ban by authority.

The People’s Congress aims to gather opinions of its supporters on negotiation with the ruling Cambodian People’s Party.
