According to the additional investigation, Jeong In Cheol and the victim Han Yong Duk (35 years old, Korean nationality) knew each other in Vietnam and were both business partners.

In April 2020, Cheol and Han Yong Duk invested 1.8 billion VND each in a business, but failed.

On November 14, 2020, Mr. Duk came to meet Cheol at Cheol's company (headquartered in Tan Hung ward, district 7) to discuss borrowing 2.7 billion VND for 2 days to invest and do business. After the agreement, Cheol borrowed money from his brother-in-law and friends to lend Duk 2.7 billion VND with an interest rate of 30% within 2 days, the repayment deadline is November 16, 2020.

On November 17, 2020, Mr. Duk did not pay the total debt of 3.51 billion VND in principal and interest to Cheol, but challenged him and demanded to offset the 1.8 billion VND he had previously invested. Due to frustration over business losses and being asked to pay off debts by his brother-in-law and friends, Cheol came up with the idea of ​​killing Mr. Duk and robbing his property to pay off the debt.

On November 24, 2020, Cheol went to buy some items to hide at the company. On the evening of November 26, 2020, Cheol drove Mr. Duk back to the company headquarters in District 7, then mixed sleeping pills in beer and gave it to the victim to drink.

As Duk was drugged, Cheol stuffed medical gloves into his mouth until he died. After Duk died, Cheol dragged his compatriot's body into the elevator and took him down to the first floor of the company.

Cheol then took the victim's two bracelets and phone and asked an acquaintance to sell them, but many stores offered low prices so he did not sell them.

On the afternoon of November 28, 2020, Jeong In Cheol was arrested by Ho Chi Minh City Police while hiding in an apartment in District 2 (now Thu Duc City, Ho Chi Minh City).
