Currently, local authorities, departments and police agencies are completing paperwork and procedures for the victims' families to bring them home for burial according to custom.

According to Mr. Hoa, the reason for the foolish action of Ms. Chu Thi V. (25 years old) was determined to be because she and her husband had conflicts with each other in life.

At around 12 noon the same day, some nearby residents discovered sandals, shirts, hats and a motorbike on the riverbank and suspected that someone had jumped into the river. Therefore, they reported to the local authorities and organized a search.

At around 2pm the same day, the mother’s body was brought ashore. It is known that in addition to her two children, Ms. V is currently 2 months pregnant with her third child.
