At 5 pm today, a reporter from Danlambao called Mr. Loc, a doctor of Prison No. 6, to inquire about the status of blogger Dieu Cay. Answering the call, he denied the hunger strike of the blogger and brazenly confirmed that Dieu Cay is still on ‘normal diet,’ ‘happy,’ and staying in ‘a large room with TV and all kind of necessities.’
Dr. Loc said that he is currently out of town for a training but on last Sunday, July 21, he returned to Prison No. 6 to get his pay check and then examined Dieu Cay. "I asked prison authorities to check his health and it is normal. There is no problem," he said.
Regarding disciplinary solitary confinement, Dr. Loc said blogger Dieu Cay is ‘staying in a large room with TV and all kind of necessities.’
"Isolating the room for avoiding arguing from... the inmates cannot argue... In a few more days people (prison authorities) will let him go out, there is nothing to worry about. There is TV to watch, private room with good diet menu, there is no problem, why must it be a big deal?” He said.
Obviously, all the answers of Dr. Loc, an official of Prison No. 6, are blatant lies because one day earlier, on July 20, Nguyen Tri Dung, the son of blogger Dieu Cay, was shocked when he saw his father as he later told his mom that he ‘could not recognize Dad.’
Dung said blogger Dieu Cay was so weak that he could not walk by himself and needed help. He even had to rest his chin on his hands; his face looked so frail and his voice was a mere whisper.
Currently, public opinion at home and abroad continues to speak out more strongly, attempting to save the life of blogger Dieu Cay's. The communist regime continues to remain silent, waiting for the return of Mr. Truong Tan Sang from his trip to the US. In the coming days, the state-run media will also be mobilized to spread lies and defame Dieu Cay. If that happens, the scenario will be nothing more than the lies contained in Dr. Loc's speech, which are recorded in the video clip above.
