According to the initial investigation results, in early 2018, Thuan met and fell in love with a 12th grade female student named L. After a period of getting to know each other, finding that they were not compatible, Ms. L. broke up and met another boyfriend.
Seeing that, Thuan was angry and posted some sensitive photos of the two of them on social media and demanded that Ms. L. give Thuan 5 million VND in "love fees" before removing the photos, otherwise he would post other "hotter" photos.
Knowing that she could not compromise with Thuan, Ms. L. asked for help from the knights. On the morning of July 7, when Thuan arrived at the meeting place to receive Ms. L.'s money, he was caught red-handed by the knights.
Checking Thuan's phone, the knight discovered many pictures of Ms. L. and Thuan naked, hugging each other in a motel. Thuan said he took these pictures with L's consent. The purpose of taking them was to "keep as a souvenir".
On the same afternoon, the knights handed over the subject to Hiep Thanh Ward Police, Thu Dau Mot City for further handling according to authority.
