Officials of the Preah Vihear Authority said that Cambodia plans to complain against Thailand to the UN about the shooting by Thai soldiers on two Naga statues facing the north. The Rasmei Kampuchea newspaper quoted an anonymous official as saying that Preah Vihear is listed as a World Heritage site, and now Thai soldiers violated international laws which stipulated that no one can touch upon antiquities protected under the UNESCO World Heritage list. Bullets pockmarked two Naga statues along the stairway to the Preah Vihear temple, therefore, Thai troops must bear responsibility for their ambition in trying to take Preah Vihear temple and turning it into their properties
