Exhibition on Tuol Sleng prison in Phnom Penh museum

PHNOM PENH, Cambodia - Photo shows an exhibit made from the skulls of victims who died at the Tuol Sleng prison during the 1975-1979 Khmer Rouge regime, on display at a Phnom Penh museum. Slow preparations have forced a delay in the opening of trials for ex-Khmer Rouge leaders until next year, including the trial of the prison's former warden, Kaing Khek Ieu. At least 16,000 people were executed at the prison during his tenure.
