Giang Hong Thanh

Giang Hong Thanh is a Vietnamese lawyer known for representing notable clients in high-profile legal cases. Recently, he was in the news for successfully advocating on behalf of property tycoon Truong My Lan, who was sentenced to death for fraud totaling $27 billion. Following Vietnam's recent decision to abolish the death penalty for several crimes, including embezzlement, Thanh announced that Lan's sentence would be converted to life imprisonment, much to her relief.
