Dang Dinh Hong (born in 1973, former Director of Eximbank Do Luong Transaction Office), Tran Kim Thoa (born in 1982, former Deputy Director of Credit Department of Eximbank Vinh branch) were both prosecuted for the crime of "Intentionally violating State regulations on economic management causing serious consequences" according to Clause 3, Article 165, Penal Code 1999.

13 other defendants, former employees of Eximbank Do Luong transaction office and Eximbank Vinh branch, were also prosecuted for the crime of "Intentionally violating State regulations on economic management, causing serious consequences".

According to the indictment of the People's Procuracy of Nghe An province, from 2012 to 2016, Nguyen Thi Lam took advantage of customers' trust, deceived customers into signing payment orders, signed fake payment authorizations, and payment statements.

Every time he needed a customer's signature, Lam used tricks such as paying interest and bonuses to customers and mixing these procedures with documents such as payment orders, cash statements, and payment authorizations for customers to sign in vain.

Then, Lam took it home to legalize the withdrawal or transfer of money. There were also many cases where Lam forged the customer's signature and then took it to the bank staff, lying that he was withdrawing or transferring money on behalf of the customer.

Due to trust in Lam, due to the loose direction and management of Hong - Director of Eximbank Do Luong Transaction Office, bank employees completed procedures for Lam to withdraw and transfer money even though the customer's savings book was in their possession and the customer was not present.

Using the above tricks, Lam withdrew deposits from 6 customers in Nghe An in the Eximbank banking system with a total amount of more than 50 billion VND.

The other defendants mentioned above did not comply with the regulations when working at the transaction office and Eximbank Vinh branch, leading to Lam taking advantage of withdrawing savings deposits in the Eximbank Vinh system of 6 customers to appropriate and intentionally violated the regulations on deposits and withdrawals... The indictment also specifically stated the actions of defendant Hong and 14 other defendants.
