Cambodia says the country's king has pardoned a Thai man who had been sentenced to seven years in prison for spying in a case that worsened a diplomatic feud between the neighboring countries.
Government spokesman Khieu Kanharith said Friday that Thai national Siwarak Chothipong would be released from prison Monday following his pardon by King Norodom Sihamoni.
Siwarak had been charged with spying on ousted Thai Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra during his recent trip to Cambodia, which had spiked tensions between the countries.
