From Monday until Tuesday, the Chamber heard American photojournalist Al Rockoff testify on his experiences in Phnom Penh before and during the fall of the city in April 1975. In the two days following Rockoff’s testimony, the Prosecution presented key documents relevant to the respective roles of Ieng Sary and Khieu Samphan.
Legal and procedural issues raised this week included the use of testimonies of deceased persons, timely circulation of the list of documents to be presented, and the health condition of Accused Nuon Chea and Khieu Samphan. Despite these concerns, Al Rockoff completed his testimony and the OCP presented documents expeditiously.
