The government has put on trial 22 executives who
have been charged with losses of Vietnam’s oil firm, PetroVietnam. Among the
executives, is the first politburo member to face a trial in decades.
Couples requiring a divorce lawyer in
Thailand will have to meet the terms and conditions of divorce in
Thailand, having one of the spouses residing in the country.
The trial follows a crackdown on corruption and
mismanagement of the banking and energy industries. Of the executives being
charged, 12 are accused of economic mismanagement and eight are accused of
embezzlement. The seriousness of these offenses may result in the death penalty
or 20 years in prison.
The corruption crackdown is rumored to be
politically driven and aimed at those who are close to the former PM Nguyen Tan
Dung. One of the Politburo members on trial was said to be kidnapped from a
park in Berlin and taken back to Vietnam against his will to face charges of
more than $150 million from PetroVietnam.
However, when he appeared in court on national
television, he stated that the decision to return home was his own.
