Tung's neighbor is Ngo Anh Man, who lives in Hamlet 6, Nghia Trung Commune, Nghia Dan District. In 2007, Man had to appear in court for gambling. After escaping prison for gambling, he still had the same old problem, going to the gambling table every day.

When he was short of money, he would take his motorbike and cell phone to pawn shops to gamble. Many times, the Nghia Trung Commune Police organized an ambush to catch him red-handed, but failed because Man and his subjects changed locations frequently.

Knowing that Luong The Tung was looking after the house for his brother, Man often "hooked up" with Tung to turn this house into a gambling den.

At around 8:00 p.m. on February 19, knowing that his wife had just sold a calf for nearly 8 million VND, Man took advantage of the moment when his wife went to a neighbor's house to open the cupboard, took out more than 7 million VND, put it in his pocket, and then called gamblers to gamble.

Man called Luong The Tung to inform him: "Uncle, arrange for us to go to Ninh's house to gamble." Tung agreed and called gamblers Vo Van Tan and Truong Sy Mao (living in the same commune) to join the gambling.

At around 8:30 p.m. the same day, Man and Ngo Dinh Hao, who lived in Hamlet 6, Nghia Trung Commune, went to Ninh's house to gamble. Tan and Mao were waiting there, then they went into the room to gamble. Before sitting down, they agreed to bet 50,000 VND per game and were fined from 100,000 to 500,000 VND.

Upon receiving the news that at Mr. Luong The Ninh's house in Nghia Trung commune, a group of local young men were organizing gambling, the leader of Nghia Dan district police assigned the Criminal Investigation Police Team on Crime, Economy, and Drugs to deploy the plan, break into the house and catch them red-handed.

Only 20 minutes later, detectives and investigators arrived at Mr. Ninh's house and caught 5 people, including Ngo Anh Man, Vo Van Tan, Truong Sy Mao, Ngo Dinh Hao, and Ngo Sy Tien, gambling with each other; confiscated 12,400,000 VND and a deck of cards from the gambling table.

At the investigation agency, the subjects confessed that they also participated in gambling at Mr. Ninh's house with Vo Van Ngo and Luong The Tung. During the gambling, due to running out of money, Tung and Ngo left first. However, when Nghia Dan District Police summoned Tung and Ngo to clarify their gambling behavior, both subjects were not present in the area.

After a period of campaigning and calling, Tung and Ngo came to the Nghia Dan District Police Department to surrender for gambling. During the investigation, the investigation agency also clarified the amount of money that the subjects brought to gamble, of which the most was Ngo Anh Man with a gambling amount of more than 7,000,000 VND.

On March 27, the Investigation Police Agency of Nghia Dan District Police initiated a case and prosecuted 5 defendants for gambling who were arrested in Nghia Trung Commune./.
