After 2 days of trial and deliberation, on the afternoon of November 19, the Hanoi People’s Court handed down a sentence against two defendants in the case of a stepfather and a mother who abused their 3-year-old daughter to the death.
Accordingly, the court sentenced the defendant Nguyen Minh Tuan (31, living in Hai Ba Trung district, Hanoi) to death for murder and 30 months in prison for illegal possession of narcotics, the total penalty is death. .
The defendant Nguyen Thi Lan Anh (29 years old) was sentenced to life imprisonment for murder, 18 months in prison for illegal possession of narcotics, in short, the penalty is life imprisonment.
The Group stated that, although many lawyers have been to the camp, no lawyer or accused has ever complained of being persecuted. The testimonies in the presence of the participating lawyer, the defendants also pleaded guilty. Therefore, there is no basis for harassment, the documents collected by the police are legal, cThere are some spelling errors, but they do not change the nature of the case.
In court, Tuan said he was beaten only a few times, not as stated in the indictment, Lan Anh said he did not use needles, but the documents in the file had a lot of testimony about it.
In the answer about the cause of death of the victim, the assessor said that at a very young age, even with a small force, it can damage the brain area. The baby’s cause of death was severe traumatic brain injury caused by injuries caused by objects. The fact that the lawyers believe that the child died of a medical condition is unfounded and should be eliminated.

When lifting the girl, seeing that M. did not obey, Lan Anh and Tuan punished her many times so that she would sit on a plastic basin.
As M. did not apologize, from the morning of March 29 to the morning of March 30, Tuan and Lan Anh repeatedly beat and tortured M., forced him to kneel in a pot, and took turns beating with metal brooms. . slap the baby with your hand.
After using drugs, Tuan continued to beat his M .. At approximately 8 am on March 30, M. was having difficulty breathing, so Lan Anh called Tuan’s father to ask him to go to the emergency room.
