Stock Photo - Photographs of victims of Tuol Sleng (Security Prison 21, or S-21). Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Formerly known as Tuol Svay Prey High School, it became in 1975 the largest center of detention and torture used by the Khmer Rouge. Between 1975 and 1978, over 17,000 people held at S-21 were taken to the Killing Fields of Choeung Ek, where they were executed. When the prison was liberated by the Vietnamese army in 1979, only seven prisoners remained alive. The Khmer Rouge took photographs of all those who were brought to the prison. These photographs are now on display at the museum.
