Miss Thuy Tien's departure from the country has been temporarily suspended.
The Investigation Police Department of Dak Lak province has issued a decision to temporarily prohibit Nguyen Thuc Thuy Tien (born in 1998, residing in Ho Chi Minh City) from leaving the country.
According to sources from the Thanh Tra Newspaper, the temporary travel ban will be in effect from March 15, 2025 to May 15, 2025. The sources indicate that Nguyen Thuc Thuy Tien's travel ban is to facilitate verification and investigation.
Previously, the Investigation Police Department of the Ministry of Public Security announced the decision to prosecute, the arrest warrant for temporary detention, and the search warrant for the residences and workplaces of 5 defendants, including:
Nguyen Phong, born on November 14, 1986, is the Chairman of the Board of Directors of Asia Life Joint Stock Company, with his permanent address in Buon Ma Thuot City, Dak Lak Province.

Nguyen Thi Thai Hang, also known as Hang Du Muc, was born on August 3, 1995. She is the Chairwoman of the Board of Directors of Chi Em Rot Group Joint Stock Company and hails from Vinh Phuc province.
During the investigation, the Police Investigation Agency of the Ministry of Public Security determined that the defendants showed signs of committing the crime of producing counterfeit food products and deceiving customers, as stipulated in Articles 193 and 198 of the Penal Code. Based on the provisions of the Criminal Procedure Code, the Police Investigation Agency of the Ministry of Public Security issued a decision to initiate a criminal case and arrest and detain five defendants. Currently, the case is still being verified and investigated.
Last March, the Dak Lak Provincial Police decided to establish an inspection team to examine the compliance with legal regulations at ASIA LIFE Joint Stock Company (address: 18/99 Nguyen Van Linh Street, Ea Tu Commune, Buon Ma Thuot City, Dak Lak Province). The inspection was conducted unexpectedly and without prior notice. This company produces SUPERGREENS GUMMIES vegetable candies for Chi Em Rot Group Joint Stock Company (Ho Chi Minh City).
This product has been heavily promoted recently by Miss Thuy Tien, TikToker Hang Du Muc, and Quang Linh Vlogs. In their advertising and sales activities, Quang Linh Vlogs emphasized that "one pill is equivalent to a plate of vegetables." This information immediately received mixed reactions. Many people believe that these advertisers have exaggerated the product's effectiveness.
The situation escalated when a consumer posted a video stating that they had taken the vegetable candy product for testing at the Center for Technical Standards and Quality Measurement 2 (National Standards and Quality Measurement Committee). The results showed that 30 candies (equivalent to one box) contained only 0.51g of fiber. Authorities immediately launched an investigation, verification, and took action against the violators.
