13 year old girl gives birth, 3 men go to jail
After three DNA tests on the child, the police determined that the child's biological father was YL's stepfather.
The High-Level People's Court in Da Nang has heard the appeals of the case of "Raping children" and "Sexual intercourse with children" that occurred in Ia HDrai district, Kon Tum province, sentencing defendant Trieu Van Tien to 13 years in prison, Vi Van Hung to more than 9 years in prison, and Hoang Van Dien to 4 years in prison for the crimes of "Raping children" and "Sexual intercourse with children".

Ms. Y Loan (defendant Dien's wife) was also sentenced to 15 months in prison but given a suspended sentence.for failure to report a crime.
According to the verdict, Trieu Van Tien (born in 1990, from Dong Hy district, Thai Nguyen province), moved to Kon Tum to live and then developed feelings for YL (born in 2002, residing in village 2, Ia Dal commune, Ia HDrai district, Kon Tum province).
When the family of Mrs. Y Loan (born in 1978) approved, the two lived as husband and wife. After a while of living together, Tien was lazy with farming, but loved to drink, leading to this childish couple arguing all day long.
On September 13, 2016, YL gave birth to a daughter. Seeing that Tien did not care about her wife and child, leaving YL to raise the child alone, Y Loan's family was upset and filed a complaint with the local authorities to pressure Tien to take responsibility for giving money to raise the child.
On November 8, 2016, Kon Tum Provincial Police initiated a case, prosecuted the accused and temporarily detained Trieu Van Tien for child rape and sexual intercourse with children.
The police determined that from August 2015 to early April 2016, Tien had sexual relations with YL many times (at that time YL was not yet 13 years old), thus constituting the above crimes.
The investigation agency also conducted a DNA test on YL's baby girl, but the results showed that the child was not Tien's.
Responding to the authorities, YL admitted that, in addition to Tien, he also secretly had sex with Vi Van Hung (born in 1997, also living in Ia Dal commune). Immediately after that, Vi Van Hung was also prosecuted and detained for investigation.
At the police station, Hung admitted to having had sex with YL many times, but when DNA testing was done again, it was surprising that Hung was not the father of the child YL gave birth to.
YL continued to confess that he had "had sex" many times with Hoang Van Dien (born 1971, from Tuyen Quang), YL's stepfather - Ms. Y Loan's husband.
DNA test results once again showed that Hoang Van Dien was the baby's father, so Dien was arrested./.
