Nghe An: Warning commune officials for causing trouble at headquarters

On the morning of November 2, speaking with a reporter from Nghe An Newspaper, Mr. Nguyen Thanh Bich - Chairman of the People's Committee of Nghia Binh Commune (Tan Ky), said that the commune is considering administratively sanctioning Mr. Le Ngoc Anh after the Inspection Committee of Tan Ky District Party Committee concluded to handle him in terms of the Party.

Mr. Anh is Deputy Secretary and Chairman of the Inspection Committee of the Party Committee of Nghia Binh commune.

Previously, as reported by Nghe An Newspaper, Mr. Nguyen Van Tuan (32 years old, in Hamlet 7, Nghia Binh Commune) rented a harvester from Yen Thanh District to Nghia Binh Commune to harvest for the people at the price of 180,000 VND/sao. After that, some people from Ha Tinh also brought 2 more harvesters to Nghia Binh to practice. However, this group of people from Ha Tinh only took the people for 160,000 VND/sao.

At noon on September 20, thinking that this group of people came to lower the price, Tuan started a fight and then attacked, causing 3 Ha Tinh men to be hospitalized. Tan Ky District Police then took Tuan and the harvester he rented to Nghia Binh Commune headquarters to clarify the case of intentional injury. Nguyen Van Tuan is the nephew of the Deputy Secretary of Nghia Binh Commune.

The conclusion of the Tan Ky District Party Committee's Inspection Committee said that on the same evening, after drinking alcohol, Mr. Le Ngoc Anh entered the area where the police were working with the violator.

“While the commune police were making a record with the violator, comrade Le Ngoc Anh had a number of substandard behaviors, obstructing the police's work,” the inspection team concluded. “Specifically, Mr. Anh spoke loudly, used his hand to bang the table, causing disorder, and arbitrarily took the commune police's working record with the violator and went to the outside area. When the police prevented him from taking back the record, comrade Le Ngoc Anh used his hand to punch comrade Hoang Dinh Tam - the head of the commune police in the chest.”

The next morning, Mr. Le Ngoc Anh returned to the commune headquarters to return the record to the police.

According to the Tan Ky District Party Committee's Inspection Committee, Mr. Le Ngoc Anh's actions did not cause any injury to the commune police chief and did not cause any serious consequences. The reason for this violation was that the Deputy Secretary of the commune was related to the violator and had drunk a lot of alcohol, so he could not control his actions and words. This agency considered that this behavior did not reach the level of criminal prosecution.

Mr. Le Ngoc Anh's behavior was said to have caused disorder, hindered the performance of duties of the commune police, negatively affected the image, moral qualities, and lifestyle of cadres and party members... In response to these violations, the Deputy Secretary of Nghia Binh commune was disciplined with a warning.

In addition, the inspection agency also proposed that the commune government impose administrative sanctions on Mr. Le Ngoc Anh for the above violations.
