Authorities recently began the construction of a sewage reservoir which the protesters say is on church land, causing a land dispute. Dozens of redemptorists and parishioners protested outside Hanoi's People's Committee building and marched along streets in the city's centre on Friday. The banners (L-R) read: Protest against Hanoi Televison for making slanderous and false reports about Thai Ha; Do not turn religious lands into places for leisure activities; What is borrowed must be returned; Do not violate religious lands.
