Regarding the caseshooting peopleoccurred in Son Ky Ward, Tan Phu District, Ho Chi Minh City at the end of March, a source said, the Ho Chi Minh City Police Department has just issued a decision to prosecute Ms. Huynh Thi Tuyet Hong (born 1948, residing in Binh Thanh District) for the act of "intentionally causing injury".

Ms. Hong was identified as the main suspect in this shooting case that caused a stir in public opinion with many surprising details.

It is known that Ms. Hong is a retired judge of the Supreme People's Court in Ho Chi Minh City.

In early June, Ho Chi Minh City Police initiated a case, prosecuted the accused and executed an arrest warrant for two suspects, Ho Thanh Nhan (born in 1996, residing in Binh Thanh District, Ms. Hong's son) and Le Dang Quang (born in 1993, residing in Binh Thanh District) for murder.

The victim in the case was Mr. Nguyen Thanh P (born 1988, residing in Tan Phu District), with 36% injury.

Preliminary investigation determined that, despite the 40-year age difference, Ms. Hong and victim P had a sexual relationship. Before the incident, the two had a romantic conflict and broke up.

Feeling resentful about this breakup, Ms. Hong confided in her son, Nhan, and asked him to find someone to punish her young lover. Nhan hired Quang to shoot Mr. P with a gun for 300 million VND.

On the evening of March 14, Quang followed Mr. P home in Son Ky Ward, Tan Phu District. When Mr. P stopped his car and opened the door, Quang approached and fired 4 shots, hitting him and causing him to collapse on the spot.

After committing the crime, Quang escaped, ran to the Saigon Bridge area, bordering Binh Thanh District and District 2, and threw away the gun. Victim P was discovered by people nearby and taken to the emergency room, but luckily survived.

In the investigation and prosecution, up to now, Ho Chi Minh City Police have prosecuted, arrested related subjects and clarified the details of the case.
