A United Nations-backed court in Cambodia formally indicted four surviving leaders of the Khmer Rouge on charges of genocide, war crimes, crimes against humanity and

murder as the tribunal moved forward with its second case. The four leaders have been

in custody since late 2007, and all have denied the charges against them. They are due in court in January. The charges against them involve the deaths of over one million

people by torture, execution, starvation, overwork and disease from 1975 to 1979.
