A former leader of Cambodia's brutal Khmer Rouge regime has told a court he and his comrades were not "bad people", denying responsibility for the deaths of 1.7 million people during their 1970s rule and blaming Vietnam for any atrocities.

Nuon Chea's defiant statements came as a UN-backed tribunal began questioning him and two other Khmer Rouge leaders in court for the first time.

Snip

You just cannot make this stuff up, can you?
