Six members of the Sam Rainsy Party (SRP) wrote a letter to King Sihamoni asking him for forgive 5 people who were accused of being members of the Cambodian Freedom Fighters (CFF).
The SRP members told the new king that the five jailed individuals were wrongly accused of crimes they did not commit and urged the new king to set things right by pardoning them so that they can join their families.
The SRP members said the 88 people the king pardoned last weekend were all common criminals and none of them was a political prisoners. As of today there's no answer from the king yet.
