Details of Imprisonment

Phan Thi Thanh Nha was arrested for posting and sharing videos that “distort and defame leaders of the Communist Party of Vietnam and the state” since 2018. Nha, 39, was also accused of joining and recruiting members for the self-styled “Provisional National Government of Vietnam,” a fringe political group based in California that pledges loyalty to the defunct government of South Vietnam. It is listed as a “terrorist group” in Vietnam but not in the United States.
