Sydney man Chau Van Kham, 70, found guilty over his membership of the Viet Tan political party

A Sydney retiree has been convicted of terrorism and jailed for 12 years by a Vietnamese court, in a judgment human rights advocates have described as “essentially a death sentence”.
Chau Van Kham, 70, was convicted and sentenced at his first appearance in the people’s court of Ho Chi Minh City after more than 10 months in detention.
