...quoted as saying. Pol Pot is currently in the custody of his former Khmer Rouge subordinates after being ousted from leadership of the guerrilla movement in June. The Khmer Rouge say they?ll hand him over to an international tribunal for trial only if current Cambodian leader Hun Sen is also tried. Which makes it unlikely that the frail, aging genocidal ideologue will ever face his accusers...
