Execution of the man who killed two children because of a goose

More than four years after the tragic murder of two children, on the morning of December 7, Dak Lak province authorities carried out the lethal injection of death row inmate Vy Be Ngoat.

On the morning of December 7, Mr. Y Thong Kbuor, Deputy Chief Justice of the Dak Lak Provincial People's Court and Chairman of the Provincial Death Penalty Execution Council, said that the authorities had executed death row inmate Vy Be Ngoat (42 years old, residing in Ea Hiao commune, Ea H'leo district) by lethal injection. After the execution, the inmate's body was handed over to his family for burial.

As reported, on the morning of October 21, 2013, Vy Be Ngoat helped his wife push a cart carrying coffee to the market to sell. On the way back, when passing by Ms. Trieu Thi Bai's house (living in the same village), Ngoat discovered a goose in Ms. Bai's yard, so he had the idea of ​​stealing it to use as a snack. While Ngoat was stealing the goose, he was discovered by Ha Cao Nguyen (10 years old, Ms. Bai's son) who said he would tell his parents.

The death row inmate's family is preparing to receive Vy Be Ngoat's body for burial.

Fearing that he would be discovered, Ngoat went into the kitchen, took out a hammer, chased after the child and hit him many times, causing him to die on the spot. At that time, Ha Phu Quy (14 years old, Nguyen's brother, mentally disabled) was lying in the house, screaming, and was also killed by Ngoat with a hammer.

After the incident, Ngoat took a bus and fled to Krong Pak district. On October 25, 2013, Ngoat was arrested by the investigation agency while trying to find his way home to a relative. On June 11, 2014, the Dak Lak Provincial People's Court sentenced Ngoat to death for "Murder".
