In Cambodia a group of opposition MPs has appeared in court, accused of inciting violence against the authorities.
The six men were arrested after a protest calling for the re-opening to the public of Freedom Park in Phnom Penh.

Spokesman Yim Sovann says the detention of the MPs is illegal, and has accused the government of denying the Cambodian people their democratic rights.
