Subject: 4 human traffickers jailed for selling 86 women

3 January 2010
Sunday Times
Hanoi - Four people have been sentenced to a total of 25 years in prison in the southern province of Tay Ninh for selling 86 women to Singaporean and Malaysian bidders.
The People's Court also ordered them to pay compensation to the victims when the sentencing was announced last Wednesday, Vietnamese media reported.
According to the indictment, Nguyen Thi Ngoc Yen, 53, was the trafficking ring's mastermind.
Prosecutors say Yen hired 60-year-old woman Nguyen Thi Khuan to entice young women to leave for foreign countries with the promise of jobs or marriages to wealthy men.
Yen would then sell them to a Malaysian named Lee. The women were bought by Malaysian and Singaporean men as wives, said a report in the thanhniennews website.
Police investigations showed that Yen earned US$1,000 (S$1,400), and paid Khuan two million dong (S$150), for each woman sold.
Khuan paid Pham Thi Phi, 50, who helped her keep records of the women, up to one million dong a month.
The ring was busted in November 2008 when Tay Ninh police and the Criminal Investigation Bureau caught Yen's accomplices while they were trying to fly three women to Malaysia at Ho Chi Minh City's airport, the website said.
Further investigations then found that Khuan also worked for another ring led by 31-year-old Nguyen The Phong.
Yen was sentenced to 12 years imprisonment and The Phong was given seven years after being found guilty of human trafficking.
Khuan and Phi were sent to prison for four and two years respectively, thanhniennews reported.

Comments:- Creating all sorts of problems to other country, some even seep into marriage agency and cheat. Imagine the girl married some guy, enjoy her 'honeymoon' and later just disappear back vietnam. The poor man just can't do anything. It's vietnam. Worst still have to go through divoucing!!! Shoud be jailed, canned or best straight to the firing squad!
