A former member of the Khmer Rouge is auctioning a pair of shoes he claims belonged to the group's late leader Pol Pot to fund a museum about the brutal regime.
Nhem En, the chief photographer at the group's notorious torture centre, is also selling his cameras.
His images are the centrepiece of a permanent exhibition at the prison, which is now known as the Tuol Sleng genocide museum.
Nhem En plans to build the museum at Anlong Veng.
Nhem En said he received what he says were Pol Pot's shoes in 1998.
He said Pol Pot wore the shoes - rubber sandals made from car tyres, which were standard issue footwear for Khmer Rouge guerrillas - for several years.
