Cambodia Slams Thailand over Spying Claim

Cambodia's Foreign Ministry spokesperson has denied the espionage accusation against two Cambodians recently arrested for illegally crossing the Thai border, saying the charges are deceitful fabrication.

Cambodian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Koy Kuong said Cambodia stood by its categorical denial of Thailand's espionage allegation and that the arrested Cambodian civilians had entered Thailand merely as tourists.

But Thailand has argued it has solid evidence to be brought forth to the international community to prove that three men arrested in Si Sa Ket Province last week are Cambodia's spies.

The Phnom Penh Post reported that Koy Kuong elaborated that Thailand was using the incident as a ploy to distract attention from its own aggressive ambition regarding the Preah Vihear issue.

Koy asserted Thailand cannot use a thing as small as mosquito that it made up to hide its huge sky of ambition for aggression.

Cambodia also released a statement over the arrest of the Cambodian men, saying the case is politically motivated and caretaker Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva does not know anything at all.

Phnom Penh added it is a normal practice that Cambodian officials be allowed to see Cambodian citizens arrested in other countries.
