Concern for Australian citizen jailed without charge in Vietnam
Van Kham Chau, 70, has been held for six months on treason charges and denied a lawyer
Human rights groups and relatives have expressed concern for the wellbeing of a 70-year-old Australian citizen who has been imprisoned in Vietnam for six months without charge.
Van Kham Chau, who fled to Sydney from Vietnam in the 1980s, was arrested in Ho Chi Minh City in January for allegedly trying to overthrow the state and for entering the country on false documents.
