Phan Van Anh Vu (also known as Vu nhom) – former senior police lieutenant colonel was convicted of bribing former Deputy Director of the General Intelligence Department of the Ministry of Public Security – Lieutenant General Nguyen Duy Linh. It is known that Linh is the son of Senior Lieutenant General, retired Deputy Minister of Public Security Nguyen Van Huong. Huong was once an effective hand of Nguyen Tan Dung.
In this case, there is a defendant named Ho Huu Hoa, born in 1984, from Quynh Luu, Nghe An, practicing superstition (some newspapers said he practiced feng shui, some said he practiced fortune-telling). In general, feng shui or fortune telling are all superstitious. This man has the function of receiving money from Vu and then giving it to Linh.
It is worth mentioning that, when going to court, the press published pictures of Mr. Phan Van Anh Vu and Nguyen Duy Linh, but did not publish Mr. Ho Huu Hoa’s face. That is the question asked by observers. On the surface, it seems that Ho Huu Hoa is a “little figure” between two intelligence officers of the Ministry of Public Security, but carefully analyzed, the press does not publish Ho Huu Hoa’s real face is a big question. It seems that Mr. Ho Huu Hoa is more important than the other two intelligence officers. Newspapers have published a picture of Ho Huu Hoa, but it is a picture of him wearing a mask.
According to inside information, Vu belonged to former police general Tran Dai Quang’s fraction, so when Quang left his police chief post, Vu was attacked and arrested. Linh is from former PM Nguyen Tan Dung’s fraction, when Tan Dung returned, General Huong was like a bird whose feathers were plucked, so he could not protect his son from the clutches of the emerging class.
Linh and Vu are intelligence officers of the Ministry of Public Security. As teammates, why one paid bribe to another through Hoa? So Hoa was a medium between two senior intelligent officers, then these two men were sent to prison. Vu was sentenced to 30 years in prison while Linh was given 14 years in prison, but Ho Huu Hoa was only received 2 years 7 months 25 days and was released immediately in court.
Some people think that Ho Huu Hoa is not really a bribe broker between two police intelligence officers, but maybe, Ho Huu Hoa is a “bait” to lure these two men to confess. This conspiracy theory comment is not without reason. With Hoa’s role, it seems that Vu and Linh are the prey of Hoa, and Hoa is not the victim of the other two characters.
Intelligence officers are a well-trained ones, Hoa played with intelligence and escaped the sentence, he cannot be a sidekick. Possibly, Hoa is an intelligence officer, which is more advanced than the other two senior officers, and may also be intelligence for the strong side. In general, it is difficult to believe that Ho Huu Hoa is innocent person.
Absent for a while, unexpectedly in February 2023, Catholic followers were surprised by the image revealing a Vietnamese priest ordained by the Diocese of Maasin, Church of the Philippines, at Maasin Cathedral. The ordination ceremony shows that the event took place on December 7, 2022.
This is not “sensational” news, but real news. A prisoner, involved in the affairs of the Ministry of Public Security’s intelligence circles, was ordained a priest quickly. Ho Huu Hoa was introduced by Bishop of Vinh Diocese – Alphon Nguyen Huu Long to be ordained in the Philippines.
This is a confusing case. It is unclear how does Catholicism have criteria for selecting people to be monks, but let a character like Ho Huu Hoa be a priest? Has Communist intelligence now seeped into the Catholic Church?
