It is known that during the process of performing the task of vehicle inspection, Luong Ngoc Vu noticed that many vehicles had their structure and design changed by their owners compared to the manufacturer's factory and were not eligible for a vehicle inspection certificate.
From there, Vu asked Luong Kim Quang, a relative, to establish LKQ Service and Technical Company Limited (address: Hoa Khanh Nam Ward, Lien Chieu District) to prepare documents and legalize these vehicles. In return, the vehicle owner or the person who directly brought the vehicle for inspection had to give Vu a bribe, then Vu divided the bribe money with Mr. Tan, Director of the Motor Vehicle Inspection Center of Da Nang City.
By 2021, LKQ Company stopped operating, but Quang and Vu continued to use fake signed documents to legalize the registration procedures for many modified and structurally changed motor vehicles... to gain illegal profits and share them with Mr. Tan.
