Death row inmate Nguyen Hai Duong has been executed.

On the morning of November 17, Mr. Nguyen Huu Tri, Chief Justice of the People's Court of Binh Phuoc province, said that the authorities had completed the execution of death row inmate Nguyen Hai Duong (from An Giang, who committed the massacre of 6 people in a family in Binh Phuoc).

Accordingly, the Execution Council transferred the prisoner from the prison in Binh Phuoc to a prison of the Ministry of Public Security located in Binh Duong province. Here, Nguyen Hai Duong was taken to the execution room to be injected with a lethal drug.

When the execution is completed, the execution council will complete the relevant procedures to prepare the body for handover to the family.

Mr. Tri said the execution was held at 6:00 a.m. the same day. After about an hour, everything was completed.

In July 2015, Nguyen Hai Duong (from An Giang) and Vu Van Tien murdered 6 people in the family of Mr. Le Van My (living in Minh Hung commune, Chon Thanh district, Binh Phuoc).

According to the case, on the morning of July 5, 2015, Duong and Tran Dinh Thoai went to Mr. My’s house with the intention of killing and robbing him, but failed. After that, Thoai did not go, but still bought a knife to help Duong commit the crime.

At dawn on July 7, 2015, Duong and Tien went from Hoc Mon to Binh Phuoc, then broke into Mr. My's villa and restrained 6 victims so that Duong could kill them. After committing the crime, the two also took away money and some property worth nearly 50 million VND.

Duong confessed to killing 6 people in Mr. My's family to take revenge after being rejected by Ms. Le Thi Anh Linh (Mr. My's daughter).

On July 17, 2015, the People's Court of Binh Phuoc province opened a first-instance, mobile trial and sentenced defendants Nguyen Hai Duong and Vu Van Tien to death, and Tran Dinh Thoai to 16 years in prison for two crimes of murder and robbery.

On the afternoon of July 18, the appellate court upheld the verdict and sentence for the defendants.
