Interprovincial scheme to falsify disability certificates: Thousands fall into the trap.
(Baonghean) - Taking advantage of the desire of those who participated in the resistance but had lost their documents and lacked the necessary paperwork to complete the procedures, the ringleaders of a fraud ring that "facilitated" the issuance of disability benefits and their accomplices received approximately 1,200 applications along with tens of billions of VND from the victims for a long period of time.
