Group of people threw acid and broke a woman's leg to get 200 million
According to the investigation, Do Quang Tien (Tan's son) had a wife and 2 children but had an illicit relationship with the victim. The family could not stop him, so on February 11, Tan and Phuong, through Ton's introduction, hired a group of Duc Anh, Nhat, Dung, and Quan to break H.'s legs and throw acid on her for 200 million VND.
Nhat then prepared a can of pepper spray and a baseball bat. Phuong and Tuy were the ones who prepared and gave the acid to Nhat. On the evening of February 12, after being driven by Ngach to Son Dong commune, Son Tay town, the group discovered Ms. H. moving towards her rented house.
Dung blocked Ms. H.'s head and sprayed pepper spray into her eyes. Quan hit her many times in the legs with a baseball bat, causing her to collapse. Nhat took a bottle of acid and poured it down on the victim's thighs, legs, and arms. Nhat's group ran to the car and escaped.
On February 13, after being informed and requested by Ton, Tan paid the agreed rent of 200 million to Duc Anh. After receiving the money, Duc Anh transferred 185 million to Nhat and received 15 million in profit.
