Koet Saray is a Cambodian environmental and human rights activist. He was president of the now-shuttered Khmer Student Intelligence League Association (KSILA), a group dedicated to mobilizing students and community members to promote democracy, human rights, development, and the protection of the environment and natural resources. In March 2024, Koet met with a group of villagers from Preah Vihear Province who had been driven from their homes to accommodate a new rubber plantation as part of a deal between the regime and Phnom Penh-based company, Selia Damex Co., Ltd. Koet posted photos of his meeting with community members on the KSILA Facebook page and spoke about their plight to media outlets, including Radio Free Asia. Fifteen days later, on April 5, 2024, he was arrested by 10 plainclothes officers and taken in for questioning on charges of “incitement.”  Koet was placed under pretrial detention by the Phnom Penh Municipal Court and transferred to Prey Sar Prison, where he is still detained today. After six months in pretrial detention, Koet’s trial was held and he was sentenced to four years in prison.
