This paper explores the challenges to uncovering the truth about the atrocities committed under the Khmer Rouge and achieving justice for victims in Cambodia. It discusses which transitional justice mechanisms are applicable and what opportunities to achieve truth and accountability exist. With victims still demanding justice and the Khmer Rouge leaders getting older, the need to establish a minimal level of justice is crucial. Although a tribunal should be supported, a much more holistic approach is necessary to recover and restore society.
