Phu Yen (VNA) – The Investigation Security Agency under the Department of Public Security of Phu Yen province has decided
to start legal proceedings against Nay Y Blang, born in 1976, for the charge of
“Taking advantage of democratic freedoms to infringe upon the interests of the
State, the legitimate rights and interests of organisations and individuals”.On May 18, the Investigation Security Agency arrested Nay Y Blang (also known as Ma Tuong), who resides Song Hinh district's Ea Lam commune.
According to the initial investigations, Phu Yen
police defined that since late 2019, Nay Y Blang had participated in the
Central Highlands Protestant Church of the Christ (CHPC) led by A Ga who is
living in the US.
He regularly used his own house to gather several CHPC members in Ea Lam commune of Song Hinh district for online meetings with core members of the organisation in Vietnam.
Although local authorities repeatedly explained that joining a religious or belief organisation must strictly comply with the Law on Belief and Religion, Nay y Blang ignored it. The man considered himself a missionary and organised illegal religious activities, incited and lured many others to participate in the organisation, which runs against the law.
He also repeatedly provided false information for foreign individuals and organisations, slandered and distorted the State's belief and religion policies in order to degrade Vietnam's prestige in the international arena./.
