Leng Ngeth (Khmer: ឡេង ង៉ែត; 1900 – 1975[citation needed]) was a Cambodian politician who served as the prime minister of Cambodia from January to October 1955.[1] From 1958 to 1962 he was ambassador in Beijing. In 1975, the Khmer Rouge on the orders of Angkar captured Ngeth by the CPK's forces which was sent by their leaders such as Pol Pot and Khieu Samphan at the dead of night and executed.
