Many prisoners could not endure the regime of imprisonment, torture, and harsh food and had to slowly die in this dark prison.

For special political prisoners, the enemy was locked up in solitary confinement cells, tortured to the point of paralysis but still alive. loyalty to the Party and the people, keeping integrity until the last breath. Despite extreme torture, the Party comrades in prison still had Party Cells, Party Committees, study activities, and organized struggles with the enemy every hour and every minute, resolutely preserving revolutionary qualities. It is the indomitable fighting spirit and patriotism of political prisoners that has inspired and enlightened the revolution by many prison guards and guards, and they volunteered to be our internal base. Inform political prisoners of our situation and the enemy outside to take precautions or have strategies to fight the enemy in prison. The South was completely liberated, and Can Tho Grand Prison became a deeply engraved evidence of the indelible crimes of colonialism and imperialism. It is here that so many outstanding people from their hometown of Can Tho and neighboring provinces have fallen to contribute to writing the glorious and heroic history of the nation.
