Phnom Penh, Cambodia, May 2009.

Shortly after seizing power, the Khmer Rouge converted a school complex into Security Prison 21 (S-21). Also known as Toul Sleng, the facility was the regime's primary facility for detention, interrogation and torture. During 3 years and 8 months, an estimated 17,000 people were imprisoned.

12 survived.
