The two accused murderers of labor leader Chea Vichea will be summoned back to the Appeals Court later this month, sources close to the court said Tuesday.

Born Samnang and Sok Samoeun, both widely considered innocent of the crime, were released provisionally from jail earlier this year by the Supreme Court, which ordered the Appeals Court to reinvestigate the guilty verdicts against them.

“When I first received the summons, I felt excited, but later I felt stressful,” Sok Samoeun told VOA Khmer. “Justice will come to me soon; I strongly believe that.”
