According to the reporter's investigation, after Nghe An Newspaper reported, the Standing Committee of Quynh Luu District Party Committee issued an official dispatch, requesting relevant agencies to urgently handle the matter. In addition, the Chairman of Quynh Luu District People's Committee also issued a similar dispatch.
"The district leaders' viewpoint is to urgently handle and strictly handle the case as a deterrent, without covering up," said Vice Chairman of the Quynh Luu District People's Committee.
Previously, on July 2, Nghe An Newspaper published an article reflecting the illegal mining situation in Quynh Tan commune. Especially recently, many large trucks have openly entered the production forest land area at Thung Buong hill to exploit and sell in a massive manner. When the local government inspection team arrived to work, the illegal miners showed a defiant attitude and did not comply with the team's request to keep the scene intact. On June 6, after being caught red-handed, the inspection team drew up a record and temporarily detained 2 excavators. However, this situation continued to recur, causing public outrage./.
