Mrs. Mu Sochua's court hearing today (24th July) ended at 11 am without a verdict, with the judge reserving his judgement for 4th August.
Supporters of Ms. Mu Sochua held a candlelight vigil in front of the Phnom Penh Court since the morning to support her. They cheered as she exited the court.
Even the judge did not pass his judgement, Mrs. Mu Sochua and her supporters anticipated a guilty verdict as the court is under the influence of the plaintiff, Prime Minister Hun Sen.
Mr. Sam Rainsy, president of the Sam Rainsy Party to which Ms. Mu Sochua belongs, told the Cambodia Daily yesterday that his party will pay the fine for her if she is found guilty. He added that his party will not appeal the court's decision because he considers it a waste of time.
