Do Xuan Binh, Nguyen Sy Ha and evidence.

According to the initial investigation, since the beginning of 2012, Do Xuan Binh established a lottery organization line with the daily method of assigning "contacts" to sell lottery numbers in Vinh City.

On average, each day, the amount of money Binh and his accomplices "held" from the gamblers was from 100 to 150 million VND.
