'Unholy alliance'? SE Asian authorities accused of trading exiled activists

BANGKOK (Reuters) - Three Thai policemen approached Vietnamese refugee Nguyen Van Chung at his home in Bangkok in January and asked him whether he was in touch with another Vietnamese man, Truong Duy Nhat, who had fled to Thailand.

Chung said no, he had never met Nhat, a writer and critic of Vietnam's communist government who previously had spent two years in prison for "abusing democratic freedoms". He only knew of Nhat from his Facebook posts.
