Dear Mr. Ennals,
As requested by H. E. Mr. Hoang Duc Nha, the
Minister for Information and Open Arms of the Republic of Viet-Nam, I have pleasure in forwarding to you the following cable I just received today :
"TO MR. MARTIN ENĦALS, SECRETARY GENERAL
AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL
LONDON
ABSOLUTELY STUNNED AT SHOCKING INACCURACY OF
REPORTS AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL HAS BEEN RECEIVING
RE, 118 VIETNAMESE DEPORTED FROM HONGKONG BACK
TO VIETNAM STOP THERE HAS BEEN NO REPEAT NO DEATHS
NOR INJURIES INFLICTED ON THEM STOP NOR HAVE THERE
BEEN PEOPLE SENT TO FRONTLINE WITHOUT TRAINING
STOP
AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL'S EXCITEMENT THEREFORE
GRATUITOUS AND UNNECESSARY STOP IT ONLY SHOWS
AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL'S BIASED COLORS REGARDING
VIETNAM COMMA A FACT ALREADY TOO CLEAR IN SO-
CALLED POLITICAL PRISONERS ISSUE STOP NEXT TIME
WOULD SUGGEST THAT YOU TAKE TIME OUT TO CHECK ON
VERACITY OF REPORTS BEFORE SENDING OUT TELEGRAMS
EXPRESSING SHOCK. BECAUSE OVEREXCITEMENT OVER NON-
ISSUES CAN ONLY BUT HURT AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL'S
CREDIBILITY STOP
INSTEAD OF FIDGETING OVER NOTHING COMMA WOULD KINDLY
REQUEST AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL LOOK INTO FATE OF
NEARLY ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND REPEAT ONE HUNDRED
THOUSAND SOUTH VIETNAMESE STILL IN NORTH VIETNAMESE
HANDS AND SO FAR UNACCOUNTED FOR STOP THANK YOU
