Nine weeks into the civil society-backed “Black Monday” demonstrations, four participants from the Boeung Kak community received minor injuries yesterday as they scuffled with Daun Penh district security guards who were preventing them from protesting the arrest of current and former human rights activists.

A group of 50 Boeung Kak activists had gathered in their community at 9am to display banners and a black bamboo cage containing a person dressed in white – a symbolic stand-in for the jailed foursome – but was prevented from continuing the protest by about 20 security guards.

As the guards attempted to take away the posters and cage, a brawl ensued in which Bov Sorphea, Song Sreyleap, Bo Chorvy, and Kong Chantha sustained minor injuries.
