they were days .iway from capturing
him tor trial, toppled Khmer Rouge
leader Pol Pot died in the jungle
evading prosecution in the deaths ol
as manv as 2 million country men. lie

Cambodians wept in disappoint
ment after hearing that Pol Pot had
died of heart failure Wednesday in a
hut barely 275 yards from the Thai
border, even as the last diehard mem-
bers of his vanquished movement
were mov ing toward surrendering him
to an international tribunal.
“He deserved to die. I am only
sorrv that he died so easily without
being tried." sobbed Kim Saten.
whose entire lamily died under Pol
Pot's regime.
Ihe Khmer Rouge and the lhai
military showed an Associated Press
photographer the body today, seeking
to ease doubts about the often
rumored death Pol Pot's Khmer
Rouge ruled Cambodia from I'<75 to
l‘)7‘). killing everyone who stood in
the way ot remaking the country into
a Marxist agrarian regimeOne person
m five died ot starvation, illness or
execution.
King Norodom Sihanouk, whom
the Khmer Rouge deposed, recently
described Pol Pot as "one of the most
powerful monsters ever created by
humanity."
The last Khmer Rouge lighters
were on the run from government sol
diets and the movement was nearing
its demise at the time ot Ins death He
was no longer the leader, but .1 prison-
er of his own men who were ottering
to turn him over tor trial in exchange
lor a peace deal. Pol Pol s wile dis
covered his body when she went to
arrange the mosquito netting around
him tor the night, said Non Nou. his
Khmer Rouge jailer.
"At 12 midnight his wife came to
us" sobbing. Non Nou said 'She
learned that her husband was dead
when she was tying the net lor him
He died in a hut built for him after he
lost his pow er'
Non Nou said Pol Pot s body
would be kept tor one or two days
he lute a traditional ( imhodian funer-
al -Wait and see." he said when asked
it journalists or outsiders would be
allowed to attend A small group of
journalists was shown the body. Teen-
age guerrillas carrying AK-47s stood
impassively around the body lying on
.1 wooden bed inside a simple hut
reeking from formaldehyde. A bou-
quet ot pink and white tlowers rested
at the head of Pol Pot, who was
dressed in gray slacks, an ott-whitc
short-sleeved cotton shirt and partially
covered with a lime-green shroud.
