Female police officer uses private parts to arrest gangster boss in Hai Phong
A student soldier and a policewoman act as lovers to catch a gangster who always has grenades and guns on him.
In early 1985, the Gangster Hunting Team (under the Hai Phong Criminal Police Department) received an "ultimatum" from the city's police department to arrest Tran Van Nhat (aka Nhat "Xoan"), the perpetrator of many daring robberies and shootings.
According to police records, Nhat "Xoăn" was from Hai An district, a gangster who chose the illegal path to survive. Unlike other robbers, he disguised himself as a police officer to commit crimes. Nhat "Xoăn" often carried a gun to cargo barges anchored at the river port along Highway 208, pretended to check documents, then controlled the ship owner to rob his property.
In 1982, Nhat was arrested, sentenced to 16 years in prison and served his sentence in a prison camp in the former Ha Nam Ninh province. Two years later, he escaped from prison and returned to Hai Phong. Nhat "Xoăn" quickly connected with Giang Thanh Long (a defendant wanted nationwide) and Vuong Tu Cuong (wanted from the South to Hai Phong). The three discussed buying a boat and crossing the border to Hong Kong (China) to "rebuild their lives".
To get money, they planned robberies. Nhat "Xoăn" still used the same trick as before, impersonating police officers to attack the victims. In addition, they also impersonated soldiers with neat uniforms and ranks.
Long had relatives in the An Duong bridge area, so he invited the whole gang to hide there after committing the crime at night. With that identity, Nhat "Xoăn" and his gang made the neighbors not suspect anything, even when they saw that they had guns and grenades with them.
In urgent need of money to cross the border, Nhat "Xoăn" and his gang committed crimes. They pretended to be traffic police, checking people on the road. Those who refused to hand over their car keys so they could drive them "to the police station to settle the matter" were beaten and shot. Several times, when people shouted, Nhat "Xoăn" fired straight at them before running away.
Once, after committing the crime, Nhat "Xoăn" shot the victim because they resisted and were being hunted by the police. However, at that time, the gang changed their police uniforms into army uniforms, rode the motorbike they had just stolen from the victim to Cau Dat street, and leisurely sipped a cup of coffee.
After a while, Hai Phong criminal police identified the robbery group led by Nhat "Xoăn". A special project was set up and assigned to the Gangster Hunting Team to destroy it.
Set up a "heavenly net" to catch the gangster boss
In mid-April 1985, the Gangster Hunting Team received information that Nhat "Xoăn" had a girlfriend in Dong An alley, Cat Dai ward and he arranged to meet his lover there. At that time, the Team meticulously planned to capture this boss because Nhat "Xoăn" always carried a gun and mini grenades in a cigarette pack.
A working group quickly explored every nook and cranny, every shortcut of Dong An alley. Another group posed as bicycle repairmen, hairdressers, etc.
In particular, the Team sent a young, scholarly-looking scout named Nguyen Van Binh and the "beauty queen" of the force to play the role of a couple of lovers. The plan was for these two scouts to stand on the road where Nhat "Xoăn" cycled past, and talk sulkily, enough for him to hear, be negligent, and lose his vigilance. Scout Binh and his female colleague were assigned to be the first team, directly controlling Nhat "Xoăn".
Meanwhile, after meeting his girlfriend, Nhat "Xoăn" quickly cycled home. When cycling near the couple standing under the tree, he heard the girl sulking: "I told you to buy areca nuts, without areca nuts, how can we get married?"
He chuckled and cycled past the couple. At that moment, the girl and her "boyfriend" quickly knocked Nhat "Xoăn" off the bike. In a moment of quick reaction, the female detective squeezed Nhat "Xoăn"'s private parts, causing him to scream in pain, not having time to pull out a gun or grenade to resist. After that, many disguised detectives supported their colleagues and arrested Nhat "Xoăn".
After Nhat "Xoăn" was arrested, his accomplices Long and Cuong were also arrested. The police seized three guns, four grenades and all the tools they needed to cross the border.
For the crimes committed, Nhat "Xoăn" received the death penalty, Long 20 years in prison, Cuong 18 years in total for the crimes of Murder, Possession of military weapons, and Robbery.
