Vietnam News Agency official release:
Six people sentenced for opposing officials on duty

HCM City (VNA) — The Ho Chi Minh City People's Court on Friday sentenced Nguyen Hong Quang to a three-year imprisonment for "preventing people from carrying out their official duties" in Binh Khanh Ward, District 2 of the city. Five of his accomplices were also sentenced to between nine months and two years behind bars on the same charge.

According to the prosecutor's report, Quang suspected Pham Van Ninh and Vo Van Phuong of spying on him. So, when he and his associates passed by their place on March 2, 2004, they seized Ninh and Phuong's motorbikes, forcing them to ask for help from police of Binh Khanh Ward.

The local policemen arrived at the scene and asked all the concerned parties to come to the police station. Quang and his accomplices took severe objection to the policemen's request, insulted and tried to prevent them from taking the motorbikes to the office. With the public support, the policemen arrested the offenders and brought the victims' motorbikes to the police station.
