When the younger brother Nguyen Duy Phi tried to stop them, his nephew Nguyen Duy Phuc (born in 1990) also said a few words. This led to a conflict of cursing and insulting each other between Nguyen Duy Dung, Nguyen Duy Hung, Nguyen Duy Phi and Nguyen Duy Phuc.
Nguyen Duy Phuc picked up a 1 meter long piece of bamboo for worship and raised it to hit his uncle Nguyen Duy Phi, but Nguyen Duy Phi raised his hand to block it, so he was not injured.
Nguyen Duy Dung took a pair of metal scissors and stabbed Nguyen Duy Phuc three times. The first stab hit his left arm, the second stab missed, and the third stab hit the left side of his chest. People took Nguyen Duy Phuc to the Nghe An General Hospital for emergency treatment.
In the forensic examination report on injuries, it was concluded that Nguyen Duy Phuc had a 5% injury rate. The panel sentenced Nguyen Duy Dung to 2 years and 9 months in prison.
Nguyen Duy Dung had three previous convictions for drug trafficking. He was sentenced to 30 months in prison, 24 months in prison, and 8 years in prison by the Vinh City People's Court, and was released on July 7, 2018.
