"Hot pursuit: Left eye twitched, a sign of bad luck as I predict … " by Nguyễn Phương Uyên

VRNs (Dec 09th, 2013) – Bình Thuận –  I officially started on the journey of life in the real world a year ago, left behind my family, my friends, to enter a prison’s gate at the age of 20. After the appellate trial has ended on August 16, 2013, I was released with a 3-years probation term. I rejoiced breathing the air of freedom and embrace with love for my country. So I decided to visit our Motherland’s ancestral shrine for prayers. From the early start of this trip, I have found a group of secret force lurking on my every move.

Night of 24.09.2013, they came to our hotel room, harassed and wanted to check our I.D. cards. Fortunately, my mother has arranged for me to move to Blogger Nguyen Tuong Thuy’s home for safety and to prevent them from seizing my I.D. card, and.or any difficulty for my traveling. While I was approaching a taxi, I saw many men in black outfits surrounded the area. Although everything seemed to have no problem for my flight at 21h00 on September 25, 2013 departing Hanoi and taking us back to Saigon, however, a turn for the worst happened instead. At around 19h00, while Mr. Pham Ba Hai, Mrs. Duong Thi Tan, Mr. Le Quoc Quyet, my mother Mrs. Nguyen Thi Nhung, a few other people and I were at Mr. Nguyen Tuong Thuy’s house, the police came, pounding on the door and arrested everyone.
