Prosecution of murder case hiding body under floor

On December 19, the Investigation Police Department of Quang Binh Province issued a decision to prosecute the case and prosecute Nguyen Manh Hung for murder. The decisions were approved by the Quang Binh Provincial People's Procuracy.

Nguyen Manh Hung (born 1986), residing in Mai Hoa commune, Tuyen Hoa district, is the suspect in the murder and hiding of the body at the rented house number 48, Truong Chinh street, Dong Hoi city.

Previously, at around 5:30 p.m. on December 3, while renovating the house, a group of workers were shocked to discover part of a human leg bone lying under the floor. Upon receiving the report, the authorities in Quang Binh cordoned off the scene to examine and excavate the area where the workers discovered the human leg bone.

Nguyen Manh Hung was arrested

At the scene, the authorities found a decomposed male body. Based on the results of the crime scene investigation and the evidence collected, the investigation team determined that this was a murder case and proceeded to isolate the area and identify the perpetrator.

In just a short time, the suspect of the case, Nguyen Manh Hung, was caught. According to his testimony, around the beginning of June 2010, through an acquaintance, Hung went to stay with Mr. Bui Tien Dung (born 1981), from Duc Ninh Dong ward, Dong Hoi city at house number 48 Truong Chinh street to bet on football.

During their time together, Mr. Dung assigned Hung to write a ticket to expose people who came to bet on football and gave Hung 10% of the total amount of money recorded. At the end of the 2010 World Cup season, the amount of money Hung received was 7 million VND but Mr. Dung did not pay Hung, so the two sides had a conflict. Mr. Dung punched Hung in the face, then went into the bathroom to wash his hair.

Angry at being beaten, Hung used a bed ladder to stab Dung in the head from behind, then used his hands to pin Dung to the bathroom floor until he died.

The house where the victim's body was found

After committing the crime, the subject went to a neighbor’s house to borrow an iron pickaxe, went back to the room, pulled out the bed, dug up the floor, broke the cement layer, and buried the victim’s body. Afterwards, Nguyen Manh Hung bought cement to cover up the traces. This subject continued to stay at the house at 48 Truong Chinh Street for about 10 more days before checking out and moving elsewhere.

On December 13, the National Institute of Forensic Medicine, Ministry of Health also concluded the forensic examination of DNA from the body found under the floor. The DNA sample results showed that the body was related to Bui Tien Dung's relatives.
