| Hai Phong farmer gets 5 years for attempted murder
The northern Hai Phong City People’s Court has sentenced Doan Van Vuon, a 50-year-old farmer in Tien Lang District, to five years in jail for leading a violent resistance against on-duty officers, causing injuries to seven people last year.

After three days of trial, the court yesterday gave the sentence to Vuon and other sentences to his five accomplices, including Doan Van Quy, 47 (Vuon’s brother), Doan Van Sinh, 56, and Doan Van Ve, 39, Nguyen Thi Thuong, 43, Vuon’s wife, and Pham Thi Bau, 31, Quy’ wife.
Vuon, Quy, Sinh and Ve were indicted for “attempted murder” while Thuong and Bau were prosecuted for “resisting on-duty officers”.
Quy received the same sentence as Vuon while Sinh and Ve got three years and six months and two years in prison respectively.
Thuong and Quy were respectively given 15-month and 18-month suspended sentences.
According to the indictment, the district People’s Committee in 1993 allocated 21 hectares of alluvial land in Vinh Quang Commune to Vuon, with a use term of 14 months. Vuon later encroached on 19.3 hectares outside the allocated area, so the local authorities fined him but also issued a decision to allocate that land to Vuon for use in aquaculture.

Vuon later encroached on 19.3 hectares outside the allocated area, so the local authorities fined him but also issued a decision to allocate that land to Vuon for use in aquaculture.
On April 7, 2009, the district authorities issued a decision to withdraw the 19.3 hectare land as the use term had been expired, but Vuon did not agree to the withdrawal and filed a suit to the city People’s Court but lost the case.
The district authorities later issued a decision of forced land eviction and a plan thereof to take back the land from Vuon, who and his relatives later erected fences to block access to the land, bought shotguns and laid homemade landmines on paths leading to the land.
On January 5, 2012 when the force that was executing the forced land eviction decision was approaching the land, Vuon and his accomplices activated the landmines and opened fire on them, injuring seven members of the force.
Vuon and his five accomplices were arrested the same day but Thuong and Bau were later released on bail.
