Judges at Cambodia's genocide court have demanded that corruption allegations
be addressed to avoid tainting upcoming trials of former Khmer Rouge leaders.
The cash-strapped court has been twice hit by allegations that Cambodian staff
paid bribes for their jobs.
International and Cambodian judges are meeting in the capital Phnom Penh for a
week-long discussion of ongoing issues surrounding the court.
In August, the court formally indicted former Khmer Rouge prison chief Kaing
Guek Eav - better known as Duch - making him the first leader to stand trial.
His trial is expected to begin in October, but the court remains in financial
difficulty.
