Mr. Nguyen Thanh Duyen and his wife in Soc Qua hamlet (Tan Hung commune, Hon Quan district, Binh Phuoc province) are still in shock when talking about the moment they faced "death" at 3am on July 16.
At that time, both of them were sleeping soundly. Suddenly waking up, Mrs. Cuc saw two strangers cutting the necklace around her neck. She tried to shout for help but one of them used his hand to strangle her until she couldn't breathe...
Mr. Duyen woke up and was quickly wrapped in a mosquito net around both husband and wife by one of the young men and punched repeatedly on the heads, faces and backs of the victims.

Three young men were arrested. |
Not stopping there, a young man rushed forward and stabbed both husband and wife with a knife. Mr. Duyen risked his life to grab one of the men's hands and was stabbed by this man. At the same time, the other man let go of Mrs. Cuc and rushed forward with a knife to slash Mr. Duyen, forcing the victim to let go of the robber.
Mrs. Cuc cried for help, causing them to run outside and escape on the motorbike of their accomplice who was waiting. Upon inspection, Mr. Duyen's family lost 2 cell phones and a gold necklace.
Lieutenant Colonel Nguyen Chinh, Captain of the Criminal Police Team of Hon Quan District Police, said: "Through verification and investigation, we discovered that the suspect is the nephew of Mr. Duyen and his wife named Son. From here, the detectives identified two more accomplices of Son, including: Minh and Hoang.

Evidence of the case. |
After more than 7 days of surveillance in many areas inside and outside Binh Phuoc province, the police force captured Son and Minh while they were hiding in the mountainous area of Dak Ngo commune, Tuy Duc district, Dak Nong province.
Expanding the investigation to August 15, the detectives arrested Hoang for the above behavior. The group of young men confessed that due to lack of money to pay off gambling debts and spending, Son invited Minh and Hoang to his aunt's house (Mrs. Cuc) to rob her.
On July 16, the three of them drove their motorbikes near the house. Afraid that they would be discovered, Son stayed outside to keep watch. Minh and Hoang wore masks to cover their faces, climbed over the wall and broke into the house through the back door as instructed by Son. After Luc took the cell phone from the living room, Minh and Hoang went to where Mrs. Cuc and her husband were sleeping and used scissors to cut the gold necklace around the female homeowner's neck.
Mrs. Cuc woke up with a start, shouted, Minh strangled the victim. Hoang, the one who used a knife to slash Mr. Duyen's hand, is still receiving treatment...
