2026年8月20日,包括柬埔寨记者联盟协会在内的50多家民间组织在金边发表联合声明,公开呼吁当局立即释放Chea Vuthy,并撤销对其提出的所有指控。
据了解,Chea Vuthy此前因发送私人Messenger信息被判处18个月监禁。涉案信息仅发送给约20人。联合声明指出,仅凭私人通讯内容进行刑事起诉缺乏合理性,更不足以支撑18个月的刑期。
参与声明的组织认为,此次判决违反了柬埔寨宪法所保障的言论自由权,同时也违背了《公民权利和政治权利国际公约》第19条的相关规定。此外,这些组织表示,该判决削弱了柬埔寨在最近一次普遍定期审议中,就维护言论自由和新闻自由所作出的承诺。

**UPDATES:**
More than 50 civil society organizations, including the Cambodian Journalists Alliance Association, called on authorities Thursday to immediately release Chea Vuthy and drop all charges against him.
In a [joint statement](https://www.licadho-cambodia.org/pressrelease.php?perm=565), the groups said Vuthy's prosecution rested solely on a private Messenger message sent to about 20 people, which they said could not reasonably justify criminal prosecution, let alone an 18-month sentence.
The groups said the conviction violates Vuthy's freedom of expression rights under Cambodia's constitution and Article 19 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, and undermines commitments Cambodia made during its most recent Universal Periodic Review on freedom of expression and press freedom.
