After 2 days, when Duc did not return the bike, Manh went to his house to ask. Knowing that he could not cover up his actions, Duc confessed that he had pawned the electric bike in Cua Lo Town. At this time, Manh's family filed a report with the Agency (Nghi Loc District Police Investigation Agency).
On the morning of June 27, the authorities summoned Nguyen Minh Duc to the police headquarters to clarify the case. There, Duc bowed his head and admitted his crime.
Duc said that because he had no money to play games, he went to his neighbor's house to borrow an electric bike and pawned it for 3 million VND to have money to spend on games. Currently, the police have confiscated the bike and returned it to the victim.
It is known that Nguyen Minh Duc had a previous conviction for theft of property.
