The authorities of Preah Vihea province arrived at my guesthouse room and arrested me, Ven. Bun Bun Tenh wrote on his Facebook profile today, Friday morning July 1, 2016. I am being accused of entered the province without giving any notice [to the authority] and also of having meeting with Prey Long community at the guesthouse without giving notice to authority before the meeting can be held.
My activity here is to educate community members to participate in protecting the natural resources including forests, Prey Long, and mountains, he added. Why I am being arrested just because of my involvement in educating them to protect the forests?
