Graham McMynn: B.C. Court Of Appeal

Sam Tuan Vu Dept: VANCOUVER - A former Vancouver man who was kidnapped at gunpoint in 2006 and held for eight days is applauding the country's top court for giving teeth to abduction laws by upholding a harsh sentence against one of his tormentors, according to Winnipeg Free Press. The top court agreed with the B.C. Court of Appeal that a trial judge erred when he convicted Sam Tuan Vu for the unlawful confinement of McMynn, rather than the far more serious charge of kidnapping and kidnapping victim Graham McMynn speaks during a press conference in Vancouver, Thursday, April 13, 2006, after being held captive for eight days. The Supreme Court of Canada will rule today on the appeal of one of the men involved in the 2006 kidnapping of Graham McMynn. THE CANADIAN PRESS//Richard Lam Graham McMynn called Thursday's Supreme Court of Canada decision to throw out the appeal of Sam Tuan Vu, one of the men convicted in the crime, a "great win" that will set a precedent for the future.
