Hey there! Just wanted to give you a quick update on some recent convictions in Vietnam . We ' re pretty concerned about the ongoing convictions of ethnic minority and religious freedom advocates , with five convictions happening since January 2024 . One that really stands out is the 13 - year sentence of Y Krec Bya , who has been a peaceful advocate for religious freedom in Vietnam . We ' re also troubled by the prison terms of Nay Y Blang , Danh Minh Quang , Thach Cuong , and To Hoang Chuong for their peaceful advocacy for human rights , including religious freedom . We ' re calling on Vietnam to respect people ' s rights to express themselves , associate freely , and practice their religion . We really hope they release all those who have been unjustly detained .
