Legal proceedings begin against alleged Dong Nai looters
The People’s Procuracy of Nhon Trach district in the southern province of Dong Nai has indicted Phan Van Giau and Thach Quy on the charge of stealing property.
The indictments read that on the night of May 13 and May 14, taking advantage of the chaotic situation due to protests by workers against China’s illegal placement of an oil rig in Vietnam’s waters, the duo broke into some enterprises at industrial parks in Nhon Trach district to steal property.
Giau and Quy stole five golf clubs and a pair of computer speakers valued at VND3.6 million from Minh An company in Nhon Trach 3 industrial park.
Their case will be heard at the court later this month.
In a related move, Dong Nai authorities have so far commenced legal proceedings against 241 arrestees involved in 22 criminal cases of “causing social disturbance”, “destroying property,” “stealing property,” “openly appropriating property,” and “resisting against on-duty officials”.
