Cambodian Police Block Mia Farrow Vigil

Story here.

Basically, she's in Phnom Penh to protest in order to persuade China to persuade Sudan to end the abuse in Darfur. What the ...?

Exerpt: "Government spokesman Khieu Kanharith accused Farrow's group of trying 'to exploit the bones of the dead Cambodians' to further a political cause. 'Why don't they just go to China to do that,' the spokesman said Sunday."
