On July 19, in the Bei commune of the southern city of Sihanoukville, in Cambodia, military police arrested Hun Sokha, publisher of the CPNTV news broadcaster, and Keo Ratana, publisher of the online news channel TN-TV, while they were live-streaming a protest by villagers trying to stop a private company from clearing land, according to press reports. Facebook-based CPNTV and TN TV Online, respectively, were livestreaming as about 20 families tried to block a company’s heavy machinery from clearing disputed land, according to Su Sophary, a representative of the families. The dispute, with the Thai Boon Roong company has been ongoing for more than 20 years. On July 23, the Preah Sihanouk Provincial Court released the journalists on bail after charging them with incitement to commit a felony, as accomplices in violence against a property owner, and "incitement through journalism," according to Legal Aid Cambodia, a local group providing assistance to Keo Ratana.
