Vietnamese American businessman stabbed in Tokyo office


A man fatally stabbed in a Tokyo office building Thursday night was identified Friday as a Vietnamese American board member of a business consulting company housed in the building, police said.

At around 11:10 p.m., a female employee of the consulting company found Matthew Nguyen Littauer lying in the corridor on the third floor of the building in Tokyo's Minato-ku, and alerted police. He was bleeding from his back and chest, and died shortly afterwards.

Two employees of the firm heard someone screaming in the corridor, and one of them rushed out to find 34-year-old Littauer lying in a pool of blood. About 7,000 yen remained in his trouser pocket.

A kitchen knife was found in a ditch about 150 meters away from the scene and a bloodstained towel was discovered nearby, police said.

Investigators suspect that Littauer was murdered shortly after he showed up at the office. He usually came to the office at around 11 p.m. because he was engaged in securities transactions with American and European companies. (Compiled from Mainichi and wire reports, Japan, Dec. 3, 2004

Well, it doesn't happen all the time. I'm not saying it doesn't happen, but it's quite a rare case. It pisses me off though to see a Vietnamese sucessful businessman stabbed to death. The reason is a little unclear however.

About a year ago, a rich Vietnamese couple, the owners of Majestic night club in Seattle, were stabbled to death by a Japanese American, that guy then took away some cash and a couple's Hummer H2.

This is an idiotic statement! Japan is safest country in term of crime. The murder rate in 2003 was 1.1 per 100,000 people. You should worry where you live because the murder rate for Canada in 2003 was 1.73 murders per 100,000. Don't go to US, it was 8.9.


It ain't safe for byron to go to Vietnam either if he doesn't know there is heroin in his luggages.


In 2000, Vietnamese government executed an innocent Viet-Canadian woman for drug smugling while letting 12,000 inmates free. Some of them were murderers.

Canada Condemns Execution Of Citizen In Vietnam


OTTAWA (Reuters) - Canada Wednesday condemned Vietnam for ignoring clemency appeals and
executing a Canadian woman who was sentenced to death in March 1997 for heroin trafficking.

Foreign Minister Lloyd Axworthy said he was shocked by the weekend execution of Nguyen Thi
Hiep, who had been arrested in April 1996 at Hanoi airport after customs officials found 2.4 pounds
(one kg) of heroin hidden in her luggage.

Axworthy said in a statement that Vietnam, as a signatory to the International Convention on Civil
and Political Rights, was obliged to impose the death penalty for only the most serious crimes.

``We do not believe that Ms. Nguyen's conviction for drug trafficking meets this standard,'' he said.

``I am deeply disappointed that the government of Vietnam did not accept our request for executive
clemency and commutation of the death sentence imposed on Ms. Nguyen.''

Canadian woman maintains innocence as she was executed
for smuggling drugs

TORONTO (CP) - Up until the last minutes of her life, a Canadian woman maintained her
innocence before she was executed by Vietnamese officials for smuggling drugs.

Nguyen Thi Hiep, who would have turned 44 Thursday, who was convicted in 1997 along with her
then 71-year-old mother, was shot by a firing squad early Monday.

When Nguyen was marched in front of the firing squad, she was "gagged and blindfolded . . .
continuing to maintain her innocence right up to the end," Reynald Doiron, a Foreign Affairs
spokesman, said Wednesday.

"She refused to sign a statement of guilt."

Up to the day of her execution, Toronto police were investigating whether Nguyen, who became a
Canadian citizen in 1982, was being used as an unsuspecting mule by an organized drug ring.
..............
Ms. Nguyen, 43, was executed by firing squad Monday, despite the Hanoi government's promise to review evidence uncovered by Toronto Police suggesting she was duped into carrying the drug.

"The Vietnamese authorities had seriously taken it into consideration; however it does not have enough legal grounds to revise the sentence," stated the country's embassy in Ottawa yesterday. Meanwhile, in a mass amnesty timed to mark the 25th anniversary of the end of the Vietnam War, Hanoi granted mercy to 12,264 prisoners -- including murderers.

...............
The Vietnam News, a state-run newspaper said more than 17,000 prisoners are expected to benefit from the government's decision to reduce or commute sentences tomorrow, and later this year on Sept. 2, Vietnam's National Day.

One of the cases cited was that of Thai Huu Thien, a 34-year-old jailed for murder. After serving 10 years, he will be released tomorrow. Even one of Ho Chi Minh's biggest crooks, Nugyen Van Muoi Hai, who embezzled about $1-million from the public in an investment scheme, has had his life sentence reduced to 20 years.

Copycat Murder in Japan Seems Based on Korean Movie
A murderer who appears to have played out in real life the grisly denouement of the Korean blockbuster movie "Friends" is being hunted by Japanese police, reported the Tokyo Shimbun on Friday.

The Japanese Metropolitan Police Department are investigating the death by multiple stabbing of a Vietnamese-American that took place on Dec. 2 at a consulting firm in Tokyo. They said the case was similar to the murder scene at the end of Korea's signature hit movie about friendship and betrayal, according to information published by the Japanese newspaper.

The victim was found in a pool of blood after being stabbed over thirty times. The knife had been discarded 200 meters from the crime scene, its handle wrapped in tape and bandages. This form of wrapping is rarely practiced in Japan, and the ferocity of the attack and other details were similar to the well-known movie scene, reported the Tokyo Shimbun.

"Friends," which opened in theaters in 2001, was a huge box-office hit in Korea and was also aired in Japan.
