01005694 Case File No. 002/19-09-2007/ECCC/TC E313 49. In sum, the Chamber provided the parties sufficient, timely and clear notice of the charges falling within the scope of Case 002/01 and the conduct of the trial. The Chamber also re-iterates that generalised submissions concerning the scope and conduct of future trials in Case 002 cannot demonstrate any concrete impact on the fairness of the trial in Case 002/01.131 2.4.6. Right to Propose Witnesses 50. NUON Chea argues that the Chamber preferred inculpatory witnesses and failed to call witnesses important to his Defence.132 Both Accused argue that the Chamber failed to provide reasons for its decisions not to call certain witnesses, thus obliging the Accused to speculate and adopt a splintered approach to their defence.133 51. In response to the Trial Chamber’s Preparation Order of 17 January 2011, the parties proposed a cumulative total of 1,054 witnesses.134 In considering which of these individuals to summons, the Chamber weighed the rights of all parties to propose evidence, the need to hold a public hearing following the confidential investigation, the Accused’s right to confront witnesses and the right of each Accused to a fair and expeditious trial.135 During the Initial Hearing in June 2011 and during Trial Management Meetings in April 2011, August 2012 and June 2013, the Chamber provided the parties indications as to those witnesses it intended to call or not call in relation to upcoming segments of the trial, invited oral and written submissions, and repeatedly encouraged parties to indicate those witnesses they deemed most vital to 131 See e.g. T. 13 June 2013, pp. 47, 54.
