Colonel Nguyen Huu Cau: The law must be strict so there is no room for 'jungle' law.

(Baonghean.vn) - National Assembly delegates from Nghe An province said that the law must be strict and effective so that everyone can comply in resolving social relationships.

As a delegate doing practical work, having handled many cases related to debt, including personal debt and debt from credit institutions, Colonel Nguyen Huu Cau - Director of Nghe An Provincial Police has encountered many "half-crying, half-laughing" cases.

“There are cases where tens of billions of dong are owed but each month only 2 million is paid, which means that even after 50 years the debt is still not paid off! That is the reality of debt collection from credit institutions and honest people who respect the law, while for black credit, especially from the social class, they find every way to collect both principal and interest. These people use the law of the jungle, causing criminal gangs to run rampant, making society complicated and unstable,” delegate Cau spoke before the parliament.

He frankly stated: “Our ancestors taught us two ways to fight, the first is to use the law, the second is to use the law of the jungle, the first is for humans, the second is for wild animals. However, in reality, the first way is not enough, it is not effective, so we must also use the second way.”

“I hope our laws must be strict and effective so that everyone can use the first method to resolve social relationships. I support the National Assembly in passing this resolution with the common goal of benefiting the economy and the country,” he emphasized.

In addition, delegate Cau expressed his agreement with many delegates that it is necessary to stipulate three more principles: first, not using public funds or the budget to pay bad debts; second, strictly handling organizations and individuals who violate the law; third, requiring credit institutions to increase reserve funds to handle bad debts.

The colonel from the Nghe An National Assembly delegation should also be concerned about Article 14 in the resolution regulating the return of evidence to credit institutions. According to him, evidence of the owner must be returned to the owner and cannot be returned to the credit institution. Evidence is money, property obtained from crimes, tools, means of circulation must be confiscated and transferred to the state budget, and evidence of no value must be destroyed. Based on the above analysis, delegate Nguyen Huu Cau proposed to consider removing this article.
