Flash Info | Appeal Court Upholds Verdicts of Nuon Toeun

5 March 2026audio available

The Phnom Penh Appeal Court on Monday upheld the convictions of Nuon Toeun, a Cambodian woman who was working in Malaysia when she was arrested and deported over Facebook posts at the request of Cambodian authorities in late 2024.

The appeal court upheld two 18-month sentences for charges of incitement and insulting the king related to Facebook posts that were deemed critical of Senate President Hun Sen. The charges would result in her spending two years in prison.

Toeun was convicted by the Phnom Penh Municipal Court in April last year and has been detained in Correctional Centre 2 since her deportation to Cambodia.

Publicly available imagery and footage indicate that a significant number of homes and structures in Chok Chey and Boeung Trarkuon villages in Banteay Meanchey province have been razed and cleared by Thai forces in the days and weeks after the 27 December ceasefire. The destruction of civilian homes during a conflict goes against the Geneva Conventions and international human rights law, regardless of which side of the contested border the houses stand.
