According to the indictment, at around 11:00 p.m. on June 19, 2019, after coming home drunk, knowing that Ms. VTD (born in 1961, living in the same neighborhood) was home alone, Ba had the intention of raping her.
Ba walked to Mrs. D's house wearing only shorts. He looked through the crack of the door and saw her lying on the bed, so he opened the door and went in. Hearing footsteps, Mrs. D thought her husband had just returned from work, so she said, "You should drink moderately. You just came back this morning."
As soon as she finished speaking, Ba pressed down on Mrs. D in an attempt to commit a depraved act. Mrs. D resisted fiercely, using her hands to scratch and pinch Ba's face and arms, and her feet to kick Ba.
Mrs. D held the cell phone on the bedside table to look at her face, but Ba pushed it away, then took Mrs. D's cell phone and quickly escaped from the scene. Ba hid the phone in the leather jacket pocket hanging at the corner of the couple's bed.
The next morning, Ba realized that his actions were illegal, so he went to the Tan Ky District Police Department to surrender.
On June 24, 2019, Ms. D filed a request to initiate a criminal case against Dang Trung Ba for rape. The mobile phone stolen by Ba was valued at 2.1 million VND.
The jury sentenced Ba to 12 months in prison.
