Police seize haul of face masks of unknown origin in Hanoi
VOV.VN - The Hanoi Police have seized over 71,100 face masks of unknown origin owned by a Chinese national amid Vietnam’s continued battle against the COVID-19 pandemic.
The haul of face masks was owned by Lin Xue Mei, a 32-year-old Chinese national residing in Vinsmart City of Hanoi’s Bac Tu Liem district.
During interrogations, the Chinese suspect confessed to purchasing the products from an unknown person on the internet for VND40 million.
She also could not provide a receipt or invoice for the face masks, but said if the products were sold out, she would potentially earn up to VND100 million.
A further investigation into the case is underway.
