The plaintiff, Ha Huu Tuong, said that he would collect more signatures from consumers and evidence to continue suing toxic sauce producers.
He said that two law officers and a cancer hospital in Hanoi had agreed to cooperate with him in preparing evidence for the case.
Mr Tuong plans to meet with two cancer patients in HCM City and two others in Hanoi to prepare for the case.
“I will submit the petition again very soon as the representative for several specific consumers who are also patients,” he said.
This is the first civil case related to toxic soya sauce so far. The plaintiff is asking for compensation of VND30 billion (US$1.875 million) and asking the state to collect arrears of illegal income made from toxic sauce by those producers and punish violators.
The seventeen soya sauce producers sued by Mr Tuong are Truong Thanh, Song Ma, Dong Phuong, Huong Nam Phuong, Lam Thuan, Thai Chan Thanh, Loi Ky, Nam Duong, Nosafood, Thai Dai Loi, Hau Sanh, Mekong, Miwon, Vinh Phuoc, Tam Ky, Khuong Phat and Bach Thao.
