On March 8, 2019, Thuy Thanh and other Loc Hung residents visited their land at Loc Hung vegetable garden, the site of forced evictions in early January 2019. After finishing praying on the land, face-covered forces suddenly attacked them and dragged a Loc Hung resident, Bao Quyen, to a seven-seat car at around 7:30 am.
Hearing Quyen’s shout, Thuy Thanh tried to keep Quyen safe by hugging her so tightly that attackers had to pull both of them into the car. During the conflict, Thuy Thanh had to let go of Quyen because she was beaten so harshly. After Thanh was able to get out of the car, the attackers kept beating her violently, causing many bruises on her body.
