PHNOM PENH, Cambodia — The head of the Khmer Rouge’s most notorious torture center appeared in court Tuesday, in the first public session of the long-delayed U.N.-backed tribunal probing the 1970s reign of terror.
Kaing Guek Eav, 66, was escorted by guards into a packed courtroom for a pretrial bail hearing ahead of trials set to begin next year.
“This is historic,” said 58- year-old Sin Khor, whose husband and two brothers died during the Khmer Rouge reign. “Thirty years have passed. But what happened then remains alive for me.”
