The Honorable concerned political and religious leaders around the
world
Re: Sentences of Attorneys Nguyen Van Dai and Le Thi Cong Nhan.
Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:
On May 11th, 07, Hanoi's People Court in the Socialist Republic of
Vietnam has sentenced attorneys Nguyen Van Dai and Le Thi Cong Nhan of
5 years in prison and 4 years of probation and Attorney Le Thi Cong
Nhan of 4 years in prison and 3 years of probation respectively.
These are harshest punishments to their popular campaigns for Freedom,
Democracy and Human Rights in Vietnam. The sentences are absolutely
horrific and unacceptable by any justice system on earth. Probation in
communist Vietnam means extra jail time. To justice systems in
advanced nations, especially in the United States, these sentences are
cheapest jokes, arrogant challenges, cold and scornful slaps to
intelligent world leaders' faces who have been fooled up and twisted
around too much for over 62 years since the day the Vietnamese
Communist (Labor) Party has been founded in Fall, 1945 inside a dirty
cave at Pac Bo village by HO CHI MINH, the most notorious criminal in
Vietnam History.
HO CHI MINH's facial skin was so thick like a lustful seal's skin that
he could hide up his ugly plastic surgery face inside a dirty black
hood like an ignorant, desperate terrorist and cheapest crown while
writing up his own notorious "Masterpiece" ("Ho Chi Minh's Life")
under his disguised pen name TRAN DAN TIEN to compliment of his own
most malicious political and criminal frauds to cheat the world
including American People. HO's decayed and unsanitary body inside Ba
Dinh Square in Hanoi has been the most disgusting national traitor in
Vietnam History of over 4,500 years to all 88 million Vietnamese
inside and outside Vietnam.
We are respectfully asking your concrete and effective intervention to
help release our two young and intelligent attorneys immediately and
unconditionally. They are our beloved fatherland's brightest future
and our most precious assets. We cannot afford to let them rotten in
jail.
May God bless you and guide you and us on every way we go and in what
we strongly believe we should have done ethically and responsibly.
Thank you.
Respectfully yours,
International Movement for Democracy and Human Rights in Vietnam
Sy Hoang, President
Viet Si, Spokesman
