After being interrogated, tortured and having "confessed", prisoners were led to one of at least 150 "killing fields". Choeung Ek was the one closest to Phnom Penh.

Just imagine the person who actually took the babies and smashed them with their skulls against the tree. He still must have thought: I am doing this for the betterment of the country, to achieve complete equality between all people.

This pond was used to pour in the ashes of the of the cremated victims. It is the resting place of hundreds of thousands people. The excavated holes of the Killing Fields strongly reminded me of this.

To this day, after the rainy season, human remains emerge from the grounds. They are being collected and buried.

Like the Nazis, the Khmer Rouge went to great lengths to conceal their actions from the surrounding population.
