Amnesty international slammed Cambodia for the disappearance of three people who lived under refugee protection in Cambodia as UN rights chief Mary Robinson was scheduled to arrive.
Amnesty said it was "gravely concerned that the Cambodia authorities are failing to fulfill their obligations" towards refugees following the disappearance of a Vietnamese monk and two Chinese Falun Gong practitioners.

And the Falun Dafa Information Centre in New York claimed last week that Chinese couple Li Guojun and his wife Zhang Xinyi were deported although they lived in Phnom Penh with UN refugee certificates.
Amnesty said in a statement the Falun Gong pair were arrested by Cambodian police on August 2 and forcibly returned to China on August 9.
"There are unconfirmed reports that they are now in detention in the PRC (Peoples' Republic of China)," London-based Amnesty said.

The UNHCR office in Cambodia has refrained from commenting on the disappearances but the Amnesty statement came just ahead of the arrival of Robinson who is touring China, Cambodia and East Timor.
On Monday, Robinson urged China to embrace political reform, warning Beijing on her final official visit to the country that its human rights record remained a "deep concern". She is scheduled to arrive in Cambodia late Tuesday.
