FILE - Cambodia n Prime Minister Hun Manet poses for photo, in Hanoi, Vietnam on Dec.11, 2023. A court in Cambodia has formally charged a real estate entrepreneur holding a royally bestowed title with the premeditated murder of a young couple in the capital Phnom Penh , a case that has sparked widespread public outrage. The case attracted massive attention largely because the suspect held the title of Oknha, an honorific bestowed on business people who donate large sums of money to the government.
Unofficially, the title is associated with impunity for the rich, serving as a kind of preemptive get-out-of-jail-free card or a way of short-cutting government regulations. After his arrest, Srey Sina had his Oknha title revoked by King Norodom Sihamoni. At least two other Ohkna holders had their titles revoked earlier this year in connection with alleged cases of major fraud.
