A Cambodian Army officer stationed in the region where Pol Pot
is believed to have claimed on Friday (20/6) that Pol Pot would
surrender "in two or three days."
Cambodian Deputy Chief of Staff, Lieutenant Colonel Man Sa, made
the claim a day before the country's two leaders announced Pol
Pot was in custody.

Lieutenant Colonel Man Sa in Khmer roughly translated SOT:
saying Pol Pot disagrees with Tamok (one of his closest
officers) and Pol Pot will surrender in two or three days. He
says Pol Pot's situation is very bad and Pol Pot cannot stay as
he is because foreigners (Thai, China, Laos or others) will not
help him. He (Pol Pot) has no food, no medicine and will
therefore be finished soon but with the problem inside Cambodia
100% peace cannot be guaranteed
