Vietnam court sentences 11 for drugs
Eleven individuals have been sentenced to death in Vietnam for their roles in a large drug trafficking operation involving the transportation of drugs from France to Vietnam. The case, which includes 227 accused overall, involved trafficking, the use of encrypted messaging, and bank accounts to facilitate the smuggling of substances like MDMA and ketamine. The network is linked to transactions worth nearly $1.1 billion, and sentences ranged from 18 months to death, with others receiving life imprisonment. Vietnam continues to use the death penalty for drug crimes, despite recent proposals to abolish it for some offenses.
