(Baonghean.vn) -As Nghe An Newspaper reported, this morning, May 23,At the People's Court of Nghe An province, the Hanoi Supreme People's Court of Appeal heard the appeal case of Ho Duc Hoa and the defendants for their activities aimed at overthrowing the people's government.



The judge questioned the defendants.




Ho Duc Hoa and his accomplices in court.

In this appeal hearing, 8/14 defendants appealed, including: Ho Duc Hoa, Le Van Son, Nguyen Van Duyet, Ho Van Oanh, Thai Van Dung, Nguyen Dinh Cuong, Tran Minh Nhat and Nguyen Xuan Anh.




Lawyers participate in defending the defendants.

At the trial, there were lawyers from the Hanoi Bar Association participating in defending the defendants, including: Mr. Tran Thu Nam - Tin Viet & Associates Law Office; Mr. Ha Huy Son - Ha Son Law Company Limited; Ms. Vuong Thi Thanh - Cu Huy Ha Vu Law Office.


During the public interrogation, most of the defendants admitted their wrongdoings in participating in the reactionary organization Viet Tan and hoped for a reduced sentence and leniency from the state and the law. However, there were defendants such as Ho Duc Hoa, who, although participating in the reactionary organization Viet Tan and actively working for this organization, still denied their crimes, claiming that they participated in the organization Viet Tan but had no motive or purpose to overthrow the people's government.

At the end of the public questioning, the representative of the Supreme People's Procuracy exercising the right to prosecute at the trial affirmed: 14 defendants in the case, including 8 defendants who appealed, although at different levels, all committed the crime of overthrowing the people's government. The Supreme People's Procuracy requested the Trial Council to maintain the original sentence imposed on the defendants Ho Duc Hoa, Nguyen Dinh Cuong, Nguyen Van Nhat, and Ho Van Oanh because there were no new mitigating circumstances.

As for defendant Le Van Son, at today's appeal hearing, he showed remorse, and the fact that witness Nguyen Quang Trieu testified that Son was not the one who enticed him to join the Viet Tan organization but Thai Van Tu, so the People's Procuracy requested the People's Court to reduce the sentence from 13 years to 7-8 years in prison. Defendant Nguyen Xuan Anh confessed honestly and wrote a petition to the Court of Appeal expressing his remorse, and because his family had contributed to the revolution, the Supreme People's Procuracy requested the People's Court to reduce the defendant's sentence according to the provisions of the law....

The morning trial stopped with the defense of the defendants by the lawyers. Nghe An Newspaper will continue to inform readers about the progress of the trial.
