City Hall and slain political commentator Kem Ley’s funeral committee yesterday had yet to reach an agreement on the route for his funeral procession on Sunday, or if mourners would be allowed to march to his final resting place in Takeo province.

At a meeting yesterday, Phnom Penh Deputy Governor Khoung Sreng asked the committee not to use the broad thoroughfares of Monivong Boulevard or Russian Boulevard, instead suggesting a longer route that would finally join Russian Boulevard nearer the outskirts of the city.

Other requests included asking mourners to ride on motorcycles or use cars rather than march during the procession and for them to refrain from using any political banners or sloganeering, according to a statement released after the meeting.
