Dismissal of the head of Vinh Railway Station Market Management Board
During his term in office, Mr. Le Van Tien was involved in embezzlement and financial irregularities of the market management board.
On November 26, the Standing Committee of Vinh City Party Committee and Vinh City People's Committee met and concluded to take disciplinary action to remove Mr. Le Van Tien - Head of Vinh Railway Station Market Management Board, and to force Mr. Le Van Minh - Deputy Head of Vinh Railway Station Market Management Board to quit his job.
According to the authorities, Mr. Tien was dismissed from his position and Mr. Minh was forced to quit his job because during their tenure, both of them were denounced by traders at Vinh Ga Market and reported to relevant agencies about embezzlement as well as wrongful collection and expenditure, and improper use of financial regulations of Vinh Ga Market Management Board from October 1, 2011 to June 30, 2013.
Specifically, these "officials" used a portion of the revenue from motorbike and bicycle parking fees and street vendor fees, amounting to more than 220 million VND, to deduct salaries for the parking and fee collection teams without accounting for the revenue of the unit they managed, thus incorrectly reflecting the fee revenue for the year.
The Vinh Railway Station Market Management Board has set up a fee collection unit for 25 business kiosks at sub-houses No. 1 and No. 2 in the south of the market that do not comply with the prescribed unit price. This unit has allowed the fee collection unit to arbitrarily raise the street vendor fee higher than the prescribed price but has not paid into the agency's fund with the amount of more than 41 million VND.
Accordingly, Mr. Tien and the accountant of this unit must be responsible for recovering the amount of VND 220,062,000 due to illegal collection to deposit into the temporary account of Vinh City People's Committee.
With the above violations, Vinh City People's Committee concluded that Mr. Le Van Tien must take primary responsibility as the leader for allowing such violations to occur./.
