Sam Sary
Sam Sary ((クメール語:សម សារី); 6 March 1917 – c. 1962) was a Cambodian politician who participated in the so-called Bangkok Plot against Prince Norodom Sihanouk.〔David Chandler,''A History of Cambodia''; 3rd edition 2003, p. 273〕 He was a son of Sam Nhean, a prominent politician in the 1940s, and father of Sam Rainsy, the leader of Cambodia's main opposition party. He was a close confidant of the then Prince Norodom Sihanouk but had a falling-out with the Prince when he was exposed in corruption, selling import licenses and a second time during his tenure as a Cambodian ambassador to London in 1958, for beating his pregnant servant. He was alleged to have beaten her so badly that she escaped to the protection of the London police. The scandal made headlines in the London tabloids and he was recalled to Cambodia and stripped of all of his duties.〔http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,868644,00.html〕 He disappeared mysteriously in 1962, presumably killed by the government or CIA agents, for whom he was working.
== Political life ==
Sam Sary was Deputy Prime Minister in Prince Norodom Sihanouk's government in the 1950s. He played an important role in seeking full independence for Cambodia, in helping the newly independent Cambodia avoid partition at the Geneva conference (1954), and in helping King ''Norodom Sihanouk'' found the Sangkum Reastr Niyum (1955 onwards).
He was involved in election fraud and intimidations, Keng Vannsak recalled: The evil genius behind the repression was Sam Sary—a bestial man. As an investigating magistrate in the 1940s, he had beaten suspects to death with his own hands. Then he went study in France. In 1955, he joined the Sangkum and became Sihanouk's closest aide ... After Sihanouk decided to use strong-arm tactics, Sary handed out money and arms to hire ruffians to come and break our meetings.
