Cambodia asked Thailand to reconsider a death sentence handed down to two Cambodian women for drug smuggling.
Logn Visalo, secretary of state for foreign affairs, told reporters that his government hoped Thailand would either grant them an amnesty on the occasion of the Thai king's birthday or reduce their sentences to life imprisonment ''based on the good relationship between the two countries.''
The Cambodian human rights group Licadho and the Bangkok-based Union for Civil Liberty sent letters to Thai King Bhumibol Adulyadej earlier in the month, petitioning him to commute to life imprisonment the death sentences of Kuan Montha, 27, and Kuan Sai, a 35-year-old mother of four.
