Following a week without hearings, the Trial Chamber heard the testimony of three witnesses regarding their experiences at the Trapeang Thma Dam worksite (TTD). All three witnesses, Kan Thol, Lot Suoy, and Chet Yourk, detailed the working and living conditions at the site, including the work quotas, health and sanitary conditions, food distribution, marriages, arrests, disappearances, and executions.

Separately, the Defense raised objections regarding the scope of the trial.
