LOUT, Cambodia (Reuters) - When Vietnamese troops overran his village in 1979, Romam Chhung Loeung, a Khmer Rouge (news - web sites) guerrilla, had no option but to flee with friends and family into the dense jungle of northeast Cambodia.

Twenty-five years later, the group emerged from the forest in clothes made of bark and leaves, unaware that the war was over, the Vietnamese had gone and Pol Pot was dead

Like others born into the group, the only other humans he knew were in his immediate vicinity. As the children grew older, intermarriage was commonplace.
