Vietnam traditionally reduces the sentences for inmates with good prison records just before, Tet, as the Lunar New Year is known in Vietnam.

Glitter was convicted in March 2006 for committing what were called “obscene acts with children”.

The incidents involved two girls aged 10 and 11 from Vung Tau city, reports Sky News.
