CHOEUNG EK, Cambodia, May 20, 2014 (AFP) - About 1,000 people Tuesday marked Cambodia's annual "Day of Anger" against the genocidal former Khmer Rouge regime, with black-clad students wielding hoes and bamboo sticks to mimic their crimes in the late 1970s.
The crowd, including monks and children, watched the re-enactment at the Choeung Ek "Killing Fields" on the outskirts of Phnom Penh, the site of mass graves for victims of the 1975-79 fanatical Maoist regime.
