Subjects at the police station |
A few months ago, Go Dau District Police received reports from many people that they had been scammed by a group of teenagers who had their motorbikes stolen using the “beauty trap” tactic. Through investigation until September 8, detectives arrested Hien, Vu, Su, Tri, Pham Van Nhan and Ngo Quoc Vinh to expand the investigation. Searching the suspects’ residences, the police force seized 3 motorbikes.
Through the investigation, the group confessed that the leaders of the group were Pham Van Su, Ngo Quang Hien, Nguyen Van Vu, Truong Minh Tri, Pham Thanh Nhan, Ngo Quoc Vinh, Nguyen Thi Dieu An and Ngo Hong Van... Every day, the group rented a motel room together and used crystal meth together. In order to avoid inspection by the authorities, the group frequently changed their place of residence.
To have money to spend and use drugs, Su directly instructed and assigned specific tasks to each of his accomplices. Every day, the female subjects went on social networks like Facebook or Zalo to make friends and get to know young men.
After establishing a close relationship, they will meet the victim to drink coffee, eat, sing karaoke, then pretend to borrow a motorbike to pick up friends, buy mobile phone cards... then take the motorbike and escape.
After committing the crime, they handed the car over to their accomplices to take it to Cambodia to sell and get money to buy drugs for the whole group to use and spend. When they ran out of money, they changed their residence and Facebook and Zalo names to continue committing the crime.
With the above tricks, the group successfully carried out 7 cases in Go Dau district, bringing them to Cambodia to sell for money to spend and buy drugs, causing property damage of 140 million VND.
