After being lent money, Thanh did not complete the repayment procedures for the customer as promised but used the entire amount to pay off personal debts. It is known that this customer transferred money to Thanh 3 times with a total amount of 8.3 billion VND.
On the afternoon of December 18, the Investigation Police Agency of Thua Thien Hue Province announced that it had just initiated a case, prosecuted the accused, and temporarily detained Vo Chi Thanh (born in 1992, residing in Thuy Chau ward, Huong Thuy town, Thua Thien Hue) for the crime of "Fraudulent appropriation of property".
Vo Chi Thanh has defrauded many people, appropriating more than 25 billion VND.
As a credit officer at a bank located in Thua Thien Hue province, Vo Chi Thanh has many acquaintances. Among them, there is a customer residing in Xuan Phu ward (Hue city) who regularly deposits savings at the bank where Thanh works.
During this time, Thanh borrowed money from this customer many times to complete the bank loan repayment procedures for the customer. At the same time, Thanh also invited this customer to contribute money to buy real estate. Due to their close relationship for many years, when Thanh asked to borrow money to complete the bank loan repayment for the customer, this customer trusted him and transferred money to Thanh many times.
The investigation agency served the decision to prosecute and temporarily detain Vo Chi Thanh.
However, after receiving the money, Thanh did not complete the payment procedures for the customer but used the entire amount to pay off personal debts. It is known that this customer transferred money to Thanh 3 times with a total amount of 8.3 billion VND.
Continuing to expand the investigation, with the trick of borrowing money to pay off bank debts and contributing capital to buy and sell real estate, the Provincial Police Department of Investigation determined that Thanh also defrauded many people. The total amount of money the subject appropriated from the victims was more than 25 billion VND.
Currently, the case is being further consolidated by the Thua Thien Hue Provincial Police to handle the subject.
