A humanitarian-news explainer on the Case 002/02 genocide charges, published while the trial was still underway, quoting Farina So, who heads the Documentation Center of Cambodia's Cham Oral History project, estimating that 36 percent of an estimated pre-war Cham population of 300,000 died under the Khmer Rouge.

Facts
Assessment
Reliability Tier
1
A reputable specialist humanitarian-news outlet rather than a peer-reviewed academic source, but reporting a named domain expert's figure directly rather than an unattributed estimate; placed below this axis's peer-reviewed and primary institutional sources and above general-interest press.
Notes
Published by a specialist humanitarian-news outlet, formerly IRIN News, a service founded by the United Nations and editorially independent since 2015; no individual reporter byline could be confirmed for this piece. Carried here for its direct, named quotation of a Documentation Center of Cambodia researcher rather than as an independent primary estimate. 1
