Kien Giang (VNA) – The investigation unit under the Kien Giang Department of Public Security on September 22 began legal proceedings against and detained a woman for her attempt to “overthrow the people’s administration”.
During an emergency search of the residence of 63-year-old Nguyen Ngoc Chau in An Binh ward, Rach Gia city, the Mekong Delta province of Kien Giang, the police found 3,000 pamphlets containing content that incites disturbances of public security and order.
The documents were set to be distributed during holidays, aiming to overthrow the Socialist Republic of Vietnam as directed by the terrorist organisation “Chinh phu Quoc gia Vietnam lam thoi” (the provisional national government of Vietnam).
The police also seized various equipment and materials used for drafting and printing the pamphlets, and others.
