Exiled activists sent backTwo activists arrested in Thailand have been deported back to Cambodia, a source at the Immigration Bureau said yesterday. The source confirmed that Voeun Veasna and Voeung Samnang, two exiled political activists from the banned political opposition in Cambodia, were apprehended and sent back to their home country, as per reports. Thai authorities apprehended the activists while they were returning to their apartment on Nov 8 and repatriated them, Radio Free Asia (RFA) said earlier. Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen previously ordered Voeun Veasna's arrest due to a poem he wrote criticising the country's leader as a traitor. It is unfortunate today that they have already sent them back," Oeur Narith told RFA.
