17 July 2026

The Banteay Meanchey Provincial Court yesterday convicted Ung Thap Reang, editor-in-chief of the Khmer Cheayden news outlet, and issued him a suspended six-month prison sentence. He was convicted on charges of defamation and incitement under Articles 305, 494 and 495 of the Criminal Code.

Thap Reang was sued by the chief of the Police Inspectorate in Poipet city in May 2025, after he published an article on Khmer Cheayden’s Facebook page about an alleged irregularity in a report made by the police chief in a violence case. Thap Reang was subsequently placed under judicial supervision on 22 October 2025, and subject to strict conditions under Article 223 of the Code of Criminal Procedure.
