A new web site called Free Sokha has just launched. It is tracking all news and information related to the arrest of Cambodian human rights leader Kem Sokha.
It isn't clear from reading the site, but it appears to be connected to the United Cambodian International Council which grew out of the Cambodian World Conference held in December and focused on organizing around Cambodia's border issues as well as other human rights and freedom of expression concerns. The UCIC is organizing this weekend's events at Cambodian temples throughout the US prayer and action for Kem Sokha and "all the people of democracy starved Cambodia" as well as a candlelight vigil at the White House.
The organization has also started a blog. Perhaps they will provide photos and other first-hand accounts.
