Despite frequently changing locations and strict security arrangements, the gambling "gang" in the forest with many people with criminal records still could not "get past" the Nghe An Provincial Police.

As of May 21, 2025, related to the gambling ring using the form of shaking dice in the forest in Tan Ky district, the Criminal Police Department of Nghe An Provincial Police has arrested and detained 17 subjects to investigate and clarify the acts of "Gambling organization” and “Gambling”.

Through the investigation, the Criminal Police Department of the Provincial Police discovered a large-scale mobile gambling ring with sophisticated and professional methods and tricks led by Nguyen Nhuan Danh (born in 1986), residing in Nghia Dong commune, Tan Ky district. (Danh was previously arrested for "illegal detention" during the process of exporting labor abroad). To have money to spend, Danh collaborated with two subjects residing in the same Nghia Dong commune, Vo Duy Bay (born in 1970) and Vo Duy Hai (born in 1996) to set up a gambling den and organize gambling.

It is worth mentioning that many members of Danh's gambling ring have many criminal records, including those with up to 5 previous convictions for gambling, such as Nguyen Hai Sang (born in 1976), residing in Nghi Xuan district, Ha Tinh province; Dinh Quoc Khanh (born in 1979), residing in Quy Hop district.

After establishing a closed gambling network with "effective associates", Nguyen Nhuan Danh organized for the subjects to participate in gambling according to specific rules set by Danh that all "gamblers" who wanted to participate had to comply with.

Accordingly, when gamblers want to play, they all have to park their vehicles at a centralized location. Danh asks the players to hand over their phones, and his henchmen take the "gamblers" around many places to avoid detection by the police.

For first-time participants, Danh requires a guarantee from a previous gambler. In addition, this group of people often changes their phone numbers, means of transportation, and gambling locations, operating mainly in rugged mountainous areas, far from residential areas, with each gambling session lasting only 1.5 to 2 hours.

Although it has only been in operation for a short time, because of its meticulous and sophisticated organization, Danh's gambling den has attracted dozens of gamblers from Quy Hop, Dien Chau, Con Cuong districts and Vinh City to participate.

After a period of monitoring, under the direction of the Provincial Police Department, on May 13, 2025, in the rubber forest area of ​​Duc Thinh hamlet, Tan Phu commune, Tan Ky district, the Criminal Police Department coordinated with the police of the communes: Nghia Hop, Nghia Dung, Nghia Phuc, Dong Van, Tan Phu (Tan Ky district), Cao Son, Khai Son, Lang Son, Tuong Son (Anh Son district) to arrest dozens of subjects who were gambling by shaking the dice.

At the police station, the suspects all admitted to their crimes. The Criminal Police Department is currently investigating the case and consolidating its files for processing according to regulations.
