The Phnom Penh Appeal Court this morning upheld the 18-month prison sentences of two opposition activists and one construction truck driver, all of whom were arrested last year in separate cases and convicted of incitement.

Doem Keang, a member of Nation Power Party (NPP) in Kampong Speu province, was arrested in June last year and accused of incitement to commit a felony and insult under Article 494, 495 and 502 of the Criminal Code. His charges stemmed from a private phone conversation.
