Headline Khmer Rouge Leader Sentenced by Cambodian Genocide Court

Caption Description The verdict in Case File No. 001/18-07-2007-ECCC/TC concerning the accused, Kaing Guek Eav, alias Duch, is pronounced in the main courtroom of the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC). Duch is sentenced to a 35-year jail term, commuted to 19 years.
The ""Killing Fields"" revolution marked one of the darkest chapters of the 20th century with an estimated 1.7 million Cambodians killed from 1975 to 1979. Kaing Guek Eav chaired what is alleged to have been the headquarters of the Communist Party of Kampuchea (CPK) Special Branch of the secret police (Santebal) “Office S21” (S21) during most of its existence between 1975-1979.
