Over the past few days, public opinion has been stirred up by a status line and many comments on Duc Hai's personal Facebook account with a sour tone, vulgar and sensitive language that is considered to be attacking an individual. The Meritorious Artist affirmed that his Facebook account was hacked and he did not write this content.
Later, Duc Hai announced that his Facebook was not hacked, but that the status was posted by his adopted son "mischievously". Only when he asked the police and cyber security to intervene did his adopted son admit that he had written it. This statement contradicts his previous statement that Duc Hai could not log back into Facebook to see what was happening because the hacker had taken control of his account.
Duc Hai also said that he was "terrorized" by text messages in an attempt to extort 200 million VND. Therefore, the case does not end here because the police will continue to investigate.
