Policemen, thugs surrounding Mr. Thien’s house and threatening the family’s members
By Vu Quoc Ngu | Aug 15, 2015
Police in Vietnam’s northern province of Ha Nam have kidnapped a mother of a local corruption fighter prior to a trial against him, according to social networks.
Mrs. Ha Thi Duc, 80, was taken away by policemen and plainclothes agents on July 29 when she was accompanied by her relatives on their way to attend a trial of Thanh Liem district People’s Court which aims to try her son, Mr. Nguyen Van Thien, who was arrested for filling petitions denouncing corruption of cadres in Liem Can commune.
According to the information provided by his family, Mr. Thien bravely accused local cadres for committing wrongdoings in application of government policies for families which contributed to the country’s revolution, and illegal land seizure of 29 war-invalid and war-martyr families in the commune.
On the same day, the court sentenced Mr. Thien to four years in jail for conducting public disorders under Article 245 of the Penal Code for his anti-corruption efforts.
The police have still kept Mrs. Duc in a place unknown for her relatives and refused to work with the family over her kidnapping. Thugs are surrounding her house while the communal authorities send representatives of state-controlled civil societies to the family and threaten the family’s members that they will not allow the family to meet with the 80-year-old woman if the family takes “improper moves.”
They have threatened that if Mrs. Duc, whose health is under critical conditions, dies, the local authorities will organize her funeral and will not allow her relatives to attend.
Mobs on Friday said Mrs. Duc already died, however, according to a true source, she is under medical treatment in the Ninh Binh Central Hospital.
Vietnam is ruled by communists for decades. The government has pledged to protect and give high rewards for people who help the government deal with corruption which is systemic in the one-party regime.
