A Frequency Went Up In Smoke…


Mam Sonando, Beehive Radio owner, gathered supporters to march to the Ministry of Information to request a frequency for a TV station. The protest was dispersed by Gendarmerie and Riot Police using cattle prods and smoke bombs when the crowd of some 500 stayed a while in front of the Minsitry, blocking traffic on Monivong Boulevard. Mam Sonando was whisked away unharmed but several people ended up in the hospital after having been beaten up.

After the crowd dispersed an undercover policeman (or thug?) carrying a slingshot and metal pellets was caught and had to be protected from an angry crowd.
