The Ho Chi Minh City Police Department has issued decisions to prosecute the case, prosecute the accused and execute a temporary detention order against Le Thi Kim Dung (born in 1989, residing in District 4) to investigate the act of "taking advantage of influence over people in positions of power for personal gain".

Police believe that Dung is a link in the drug injection ring.Vaccine"service".

According to initial information, through professional work, Ho Chi Minh City Police discovered a Facebook account "Kim Zunf" advertising the provision of Covid-19 vaccine services in the area.

Investigations have shown that Dung advertised on social media to let more people know about the vaccination service, then collected money and arranged for these people to get vaccinated. Recently, Dung arranged for two people to get vaccinated at a kindergarten in District 11, but the police ambushed and arrested them.

Through the investigation, Dung admitted that he had connections that allowed him to arrange for others to receive the Covid-19 vaccine. Dung advertised on social media that he was providing vaccination services. When customers contacted him, Dung made a list, asked them to transfer money to his account, and then arranged for them to go to the vaccination site.

On average, each case Dung took 4 million VND/1 dose of vaccine. Police clarified that Dung had organized for 21 people to get vaccinated for “service” and collected 61 million VND. These people were not among the priority subjects for vaccination according to regulations.

The case is being further investigated by the police because it is related to other subjects.
