Editing Pol Potism (section)

===[[File:Son_Sen.png]] Son Sen===
Son Sen (1930-1997), also known as the "Brother 89", was the Cambodian Minister of National Defense  and head of it's security apparatus, including S-21 prison, where hundreds of thousands were killed and tortured. After the Khmer Rouge captured Phnom Penh in April 1975, Son Sen was also appointed Deputy Prime Minister with responsibility for Defense. Son Sen was responsible for ordering the massacre of more than 100,000 people in the Eastern Zone of Cambodia during the last six months of 1978. 

After the fall of the Khmer Rouge in 1979, he remained with the movement as it waged an insurgency against the Vietnamese-backed Cambodian government. In 1997, amid internal purges and power struggles within the Khmer Rouge, Pol Pot ordered Son Sen and his family executed, marking the violent end of a man deeply tied to one of the 20th century's most oppressive regimes.
