2013 conviction of Vietnamese dissidents information


On January 8–9, 2013 a trial was held by the People's Court of Nghệ An Province, Vietnam for 14 democracy activists, primarily belonging to the Catholic church,[1] including high-profile blogger Paulus Le Son.[2][3] All of them were sentenced to 3–13 years in prison on charges of subversion.[4] Many human rights organizations have called this the "largest case of its kind" in Vietnam, and condemned the sentence.[5][6] Many organizations, including the US Embassy in Vietnam, have called for an immediate release of the dissidents.[7]
