The Phnom Penh Municipal Court sentenced opposition activist Ouk Pich Samnang to two years in prison yesterday for allegedly driving his tuk-tuk through a barricade and beating six security guards at a protest last October.

Samnang, 52, is already serving an eight-year sentence handed down this July for being one of 11 Cambodia National Rescue Party activists convicted on insurrection charges over a separate protest in July 2014.

The latest charges stem from a protest held in front of Prime Minister Hun Sen’s house on October 20, 2014, by about 100 residents of Preah Vihear who were asking for the premier’s intervention in a land dispute.
