Phan Dinh Sang, 57, was arrested on March 12 by Ha Tinh provincial police for disseminating “anti-state propaganda." State media did not provide any specifics at the time except for saying he had allegedly operated five Facebook accounts between 2016-2023, joined reactionary opposition groups over Facebook, and posted articles that "defamed" the Vietnamese government and government officials.
From our brief review of some of his Facebook postings, he also appears to have voiced support for activists and political prisoners, such as Pham Doan Trang, Ho Duc Hoa, Thai Van Duong, Le and Van Dung and posted crticism of government and corporate corruption, as well as land issues.
