Property tycoon Truong My Lan has been sentenced to death in Vietnam's biggest ever financial fraud case.

Truong My Lan was one of 85 people on trial for embezzling $12.5 billion. The death sentence is seen as unusually severe. Lan's arrest last year was part of an anti-corruption drive that has engulfed the top levels of Vietnamese politics.
