Chau Van Kham released from Vietnamese prison
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 an Australian citizen. In 2019 he was sentenced to 12 years in prison. He was released on charges of financing terrorism against members of his pro-democracy group “Viet Tan”. Human rights lawyers, defenders and his family have said that all the accusations against him are ridiculous and without foundation. His family said that this was just a political scheme to smear someone.
Chau had little consular access and was allowed limited communication. Chau’s family stated that “his health deteriorated rapidly in prison. A 12-year sentence is like death.” According to experts, Deputy Prime Minister “Richard Marles” especially thanked the Vietnamese government for their good decision to release Chau. Richard said they did so for humanitarian reasons and in friendly relationship between Vietnam and Australia This is a very good result of the best defense that has been under the vision of the Australian government with the Vietnamese government for several months.
Following the source, Chau’s wife “Quynh Trang Truong”, a human rights group and a pro bono legal team protested for Chau’s release while he has been in prison for the past four years. During the protest, his wife kept saying please bring him, bring him with us. They want it at home. He is too old. Release him before he gets sick. Now, after 4 years, her husband has been released. He came home on Tuesday. His wife said that her family was very happy and overjoyed after they were reunited.
