[wildtrade] 10 tonnes of dead marine turtles nets trafficker 4 years and 6 months in prison

[ENV Communication]

 Dear Sir/Madam,

Today Nha Trang court sentenced Hoang Tuan Hai to 4 years and 6 months
in prison
for his involvement in trafficking approximately 10 metric tonnes of marine
turtles, a seizure widely believed to be the world's largest confiscation
of marine turtles to date. Today's trial was the culmination of nearly four
years of intensive efforts by ENV to bring Hai to justice.

Ms. Bui Thi Ha, Deputy Director of ENV expressed, “We are delighted with
the outcome of the trial this morning. After the disappointing sentence for
Nguyen Mau Chien,

 the prosecution of Hoang Tuan Hai enhanced our confidence in the strict
application of law. ENV would like to express our gratitude to the efforts
dedicated to Hai’s prosecution by the law enforcement agencies of Nha Trang
city and Khanh Hoa province.”

We hope you will find the attached of interest.

Kind regards,
--
