On 20 April 2021, three journalists working with an online independent newspaper were arrested for their activity by the police in Can Tao, Viet Nam. Reporters Thanh Nha, Doan Kien Giang, and Nguyen Phuoc Trung Bao were arrested as part of an ongoing investigation into Trương Châu Hữu Danh, founder of the independent Bao Sach (“Clean Newspaper”) Facebook-based news outlet. Nha, Giang, and Bao worked as reporters for Bao Sach before its Facebook page was deactivated following Danh’s arrest in December 2020. Bao Sach had more than 100,000 followers on Facebook at the time of Danh’s arrest last, and focused on protests over alleged illegal toll collectors on local highway systems, and posted images of government officials arrested over their suspected involvement in such a scheme.
