Suspected of business conflict, a family had their car burned and death threatened.

On October 6, Binh Chanh District Police, Ho Chi Minh City coordinated with the Criminal Police Department - Ho Chi Minh City Police to examine the scene of a 7-seat car fire in an alley on Vinh Loc Street, Vinh Loc A Commune, Binh Chanh District.

The 7-seater car caught fire and spread to a nearby car.

Earlier, in the early morning of October 5, Ms. NTMA’s family (born in 1989, residing in Binh Chanh) was sleeping when they heard a noise in front of their house. Opening the door to check, Ms. A’s family discovered that their 7-seat car was on fire, so they shouted for help.

People used mini fire extinguishers to put out the fire but failed. The Fire Prevention and Rescue Police Team - Binh Chanh District Police mobilized vehicles and officers to put out the fire. The fire was controlled but the 7-seat car was reduced to a metal frame. In addition, another car parked near Ms. A's car also had its rear end burned.

The fire was extinguished but the car was left with only the iron frame.

Binh Chanh District Police investigated and discovered a family camera recording two subjects riding a motorbike approaching Ms. A's family's 7-seater car and setting it on fire. While Binh Chanh District Police were investigating the incident, at noon that same day, the family of Ms. A's husband's co-worker received threatening text messages.

In addition, the person doing business with Ms. A's family also received threatening text messages after Ms. A's car was burned.

Binh Chanh District Police determined that this could be a case related to a business conflict between Ms. A's family and other subjects, so they coordinated with the Criminal Police Department - Ho Chi Minh City Police to clarify.
