Chau Van Kham released from Vietnam jail
According to the source, Chau Van Kham was arrested in January 2019 in Vietnam. He is a 74-year-old man who was born in Vietnam but was a citizen of Australia. In 2019, he was sentenced to 12 years in prison. He was published on terrorist financing charges for membership in his pro-democracy group “Viet Tan”. Human rights lawyers, defenders and his family claimed that all the charges against him were ridiculous and unfounded. His family said that this is just a political agenda to smear someone.
Chau had little consular access and was allowed limited communication. Chau’s family stated, “His health deteriorated precipitously in prison. The punishment of 12 years resembles death. According to experts, Deputy Prime Minister “Richard Marles” has especially thanked the Vietnamese government for its good decision to release Chau. Richard said that they have done it for humanitarian reasons and in the friendly relationship that exists between Vietnam and Australia. This is a very good result of a better promotion that has been under the vision of the Australian government with the Vietnamese government for a couple of months.
According to the source, Chau’s wife “Quynh Trang Truong”, a human rights group and the pro bono legal team protested Chau’s release when he was in jail for the last four years. During the time of the protest, his wife kept repeating please bring him, bring him with us. They want it at home. He is too old. Release him before he gets sick. Now, finally, after 4 years, her husband has been released. She arrived at her house on Tuesday. His wife said that her family was very happy and overjoyed after they were reunited.
