Bank employee arrested for 'trapping' woman to embezzle 3.9 billion VND
The male bank employee told the woman that if she wanted to borrow 5 billion VND, she had to give him her name on the land use rights certificate. Believing him, the woman transferred the land use rights certificate to him, and he then borrowed 3.9 billion VND and appropriated it.
On January 6, the Investigation Police Agency of Tra Vinh Province Police has just prosecuted and temporarily detained Nguyen Tuan Mong (32 years old, residing in Duyen Hai town) to investigate the act of "Abuse of trust"appropriation of property".
According to the initial investigation, in 2018, Ms. P. (53 years old, living in Tra Cu district) met Mong, at that time he was an employee of a bank.
In 2020, Mong transferred to work at Vietnam Maritime Commercial Joint Stock Bank. At this time, Ms. P. often asked Mong to process loan applications for her and her acquaintances.
In April 2023, Ms. P. needed to borrow 5 billion VND to pay off her debt, so she told Mong. At that time, Mong said that Ms. P. had to let him be the owner of the land use rights certificate in order to borrow 5 billion VND (because Mong was a bank employee).
Mrs. P. agreed and completed the name transfer procedure for Mong.
After completing the procedure, Mong took out a mortgage loan from Vietnam Maritime Commercial Joint Stock Bank for more than 3.9 billion VND.
After receiving the money, Mong did not give it to Ms. P. but used it to pay off personal debts.
In May 2023, Mong fraudulently created a document agreeing that Ms. P. would lend him the above amount of money indefinitely, with the aim of appropriating it.
During the investigation, the Provincial Police Department of Investigation had sufficient documents and evidence to prove that Mong committed the crime of abuse of trust and appropriation of property.
