At 9:15 a.m. on August 28, Gia Loc District Police received a report of a serious crime that occurred in Phuong Hung Commune. The victim, Hoang Dinh Chuyen, died after being taken to the emergency room for about half an hour due to severe injuries. While the investigation of the scene and autopsy were being carried out by the Hai Duong Provincial Police, Mr. Pham Duy Dai confessed to the crime. Mr. Dai stated that he used a screwdriver to cause Chuyen's death...
In the process of collecting documents and proving the crime, Gia Loc District Police in coordination with the Criminal Police Department, Hai Duong Provincial Police discovered contradictions in Mr. Dai's testimony. Mr. Dai stated that due to a conflict, he used a screwdriver to stab the victim, leading to his death... However, the autopsy results showed that the victim's left back wound was caused by a sharp, hard object, a homemade object...
The investigators focused on the investigation and clarified the irregularities in Mr. Dai's testimony. At this point, Mr. Dai was forced to admit that his son, Pham Duy Viet, was the perpetrator of the crime. Because he loved Viet's youth, Mr. Dai took the blame for his son. Based on Mr. Dai's testimony, the Criminal Police Department (PC45) of Hai Duong Provincial Police and Gia Loc District Police persuaded Viet to surrender to the police.
At the headquarters of PC45 Department of Hai Duong Provincial Police, Viet initially confessed to his crime: Viet had a wife and a child under 1 year old. After getting married, Viet and his wife lived with his biological parents, Mr. Pham Duy Dai and Mrs. Do Thi Tam, in Phuong Hung commune, who worked as a beer seller at home.
Around 2011, Hoang Dinh Chuyen went to Mr. Dai's beer house to eat and drink and still owed 35,000 VND. Victim Chuyen later violated the law and was forced to undergo probation, so the debt was not paid.
At noon on June 26, Chuyen and a friend went to Mr. Dai's restaurant to have a drink. There, Chuyen and his friend drank 2 glasses of beer for 10,000 VND. Chuyen gave Mr. Dai 50,000 VND to pay. At that time, Mr. Dai asked Chuyen to pay the remaining amount of money he owed from 5 years ago and he returned Chuyen 10,000 VND. At that time, Chuyen was angry and told Mr. Dai that he was giving him money.
The incident seemed to end there, but unexpectedly, on the morning of August 27, Mr. Dai was on his way to get beer when Chuyen blocked and beat him, causing Mr. Dai's lips to swell and his face to turn purple. He also declared that he lent Mr. Dai 30,000 VND and would come back to collect the interest after 6 months. Faced with Chuyen's arrogant attitude, Mr. Dai told his son Viet about the incident.
At 9:00 a.m. on August 28, while Viet was working at Honda Tien Tien 4 Company (in Gia Loc town), Mr. Dai called his son to inform him that Chuyen was in front of the house. Hearing his father's announcement, Viet immediately took a wrench and a chain box scraper from his personal repair toolbox at the company and put them in the trunk of his motorbike to go home.
When Viet got home, he saw Mr. Dai sweeping the yard. Viet asked Mr. Dai about Chuyen and found out that he was having breakfast about 20 meters away from home. Viet got out of the car and waited for Chuyen for about 10 minutes until he finished breakfast and sat at the table in front of the shop. Viet took a wrench and a chain rake from Viet's trunk to where Chuyen was sitting. After a few words, Chuyen punched Viet on the left cheek. At that moment, Viet also hit back, and a fight broke out between the two.
In a fit of anger, Chuyen picked up a glass cup and threw it at Viet's leg. Being hurt by the blow, Viet picked up a wrench and a chain rake and hit Chuyen. Knowing about the fight, Mr. Dai rushed in to stop it, pushing Chuyen and Viet away from each other... In a moment of lack of control, Viet used the chain rake to stab Chuyen hard, hitting him in the left side of his back.
