Nghe An: Taking advantage of karaoke singing, stole 30 million VND from the trunk of a close friend's motorbike

(Baonghean.vn)- Although they were close friends, during a karaoke session, Toan secretly took his friend's car key, opened the trunk, stole more than 30 million VND, buried it under a pile of sand, then went back to singing as if nothing had happened.

On May 25, Colonel Tran Thang Long, Chief of Quynh Luu District Police, said: The Investigation Police Agency of Quynh Luu District Police has just issued a decision to prosecute the case and prosecute Pham Thi Toan (born in 1980), residing in Tan An hamlet, An Hoa commune, for theft of property. Toan is the perpetrator who committed the theft at Luc Luc Karaoke bar in Quynh Ngoc commune on May 20.

Subject Pham Thi Toan

Previously, at 4:00 p.m. on May 20, Ms. Le Thi Hong, residing in Son Hai commune, went to the district police station to report that while singing karaoke with friends at Luc Luc bar, in hamlet 13, Quynh Ngoc commune, a thief stole 30,120,000 VND from the trunk of her motorbike. After receiving the report, Quynh Luu district police deployed forces to the scene to investigate the hot trail.

Through professional measures, the suspect was quickly identified as Pham Thi Toan, Ms. Hong's roommate. Before that, during the song, only Toan went out to use the restroom. In addition, the theft occurred during the day, the parking area was quite safe, the trunk showed no signs of breaking or stealing.

Working with Pham Thi Toan, the subject was evasive and denied the crime. Meanwhile, another task force in an effort to search for evidence of the case discovered 30,120,000 VND hidden under a pile of sand in front of the Luc Luc Karaoke bar. After 2 hours of fighting and persuading her to surrender, Pham Thi Toan bowed her head and admitted to the crime.

Accordingly, as a business owner, on the morning of May 20, Ms. Le Thi Hong opened the office safe to take out 50 million VND to make a transaction. At noon of the same day, she met her close friend Pham Thi Toan and some other friends, so the group invited each other to have lunch and go to karaoke. While opening her handbag to pay, Ms. Hong accidentally revealed the money bag and Toan saw it.

Greed arose, knowing that Ms. Hong left her bag of money in the trunk of her motorbike, while singing, Toan took advantage of a loophole and took her friend's motorbike key to open the trunk, then took the entire amount of 30,120,000 VND (before that, Ms. Hong had transacted goods and paid for food and drinks, totaling 20 million VND) and hid it in a pile of sand in front of the karaoke bar.

After committing the crime, Toan went to the karaoke room, left the key back in the same place and continued his party as usual. As for Ms. Hong, after the party ended, she discovered that her purse was missing and reported it to the police. After only 2 hours of investigation, the police of Quynh Luu district recovered the property and returned it to the victim./.
