Prime Minister Hun Sen yesterday claimed the Khmer National Liberation Front, an alleged terrorist organisation, was plotting to set off explosives in Phnom Penh to disrupt New Year festivities and ordered authorities to prevent it. Speaking at a graduation ceremony in Phnom Penh yesterday, Mr Hun Sen said that Sam Serey, the president of the KNLF who now lives in Denmark, ordered his members to cause an explosion at Wat Phnom in the capital on Thursday, two days before the Khmer New Year.

 

“Last night, I sent secret information to the Phnom Penh municipal governor,” he said, referring to Khuong Sreng. Mr Hun Sen said that Mr Serey ordered his members in Cambodia to set off explosives in Phnom Penh and Siem Reap province.

The premier added that after the plot was unveiled, he ordered all armed forces to stay vigilant and prevent it from occurring. “You must be aware that I have already prevented the situation,” Mr Hun Sen said. “I already know about your plot.”
