In Cambodia, a U.N.-backed tribunal has sentenced the two highest-ranking surviving leaders of the Khmer Rouge regime to life in prison for crimes against humanity. The Khmer Rouge killed at least 1.7 million Cambodians during the late 1970s. More than three decades later, Nuon Chea and Khieu Samphan are the first leaders to be convicted.
