Rape case meeting
New Zealand's ambassador in Thailand is to seek a meeting with the
Cambodian Justice Minister over convicted New Zealand rapist Graham
Cleghorn's case. Cleghorn, 58, is in a Phnom
Penh prison after being convicted of raping five
teenage girls. He says a women's centre bribed teenagers to testify against
him. Matters the ambassador hopes to raise include that an appeal was held in
Cleghorn's absence. A New
Zealand child advocate has questioned
whether the centre would have the financial means for bribes.
