The attraction of such a mechanism in light of the inability of the electoral authorities during these elections to impose the rule of law is clear. However, getting consensus on its composition and duties might be troublesome, as may be reconciling such an “extra-judicial” body with existing Constitutional provisions. The judiciary in Cambodia does not enjoy widespread confidence and therefore any such court would have to include credible persons with a legal competence possibly from outside of the judiciary. Alternatively, members could be drawn from higher-level committees, which would also achieve the required “distance” between the decision-making authority and the accused.
