HANOI: Vietnamese property tycoon Truong My Lan sent a letter from her prison cell asking authorities to reevaluate the wealth of her assets, as she seeks to pay back some of the billions embezzled and avoid the death penalty.

The 68-year-old petitioned the steering committee responsible for recovering funds tied to her property empire, asking it to reassess the market price of 726 assets that she claims are undervalued, according to news website Thanh Nien.
