According to the leader of the Market Management Department, regarding the incident where people reported that a group of people wearing market management uniforms conducted an inspection and then took 6 million VND from Mr. Vi Van Hung - a traditional medicine trader in Noong village, Ngoc Lam commune, Thanh Chuong district, on January 4, 2019, the Department temporarily suspended 4 officers of the Market Management Team.
The reason for the suspension was because four officers of Market Management Team No. 8 violated industry regulations.
First, did private work during working hours. Second, used public vehicles for private work. Third, wore industry uniforms for transactions and sales.

According to this person, the temporary suspension period for the 4 officers of Market Management Team No. 8 is 15 days. “In the immediate future, the Department will temporarily suspend the work and consider the violations of the 4 officers to take disciplinary action. As for whether or not they received money, the police are currently investigating to clarify. If there is any act of receiving money, the Department will take a higher disciplinary action…” - this leader affirmed.
Previously, Mr. Vi Van Tuyen - Secretary of the Party Committee of Ngoc Lam Commune (Thanh Chuong) said, "People reported that at the end of December 2018, a group of people wearing uniforms similar to those of the Market Management Department, driving a car but parked far from people's houses, inspected some households specializing in treating diseases with traditional medicine. Although the households explained that they did not have a license because their family only provided traditional medicine to help local people, this group of people made a record and threatened to enforce the fine, so the households accepted the fine. We think this is a scam and have reported it to the authorities and spread awareness to the people to be vigilant."
After receiving the above information, Thanh Chuong district authorities have propagated and warned people and requested the police to investigate and clarify.
On January 4, 2019, speaking with Nghe An Newspaper reporters, the leader of Market Management Team No. 8 confirmed that on December 4, 2018, a group of 4 officers from this team, while working in Anh Son district, turned into Ngoc Lam and went to Mr. Vi Van Hung's house.
