On October 9, Nghe An Provincial People's Court opened a first-instance criminal trial against Moong Van Huy (born 1984) and Kha Van Vinh (born 1982), residing in Yen Na commune, Tuong Duong district, for the crime of "Illegal drug trafficking".
At around 9am on May 3, 2018, a man named Linh called Moong Van Huy to order 1 heroin stick for 22 million VND. This man arranged the delivery location in Bac Son commune, Quy Hop district, Nghe An province.
At 1 p.m. the same day, Huy walked up the slope of Kem, Yen Na commune, to buy a heroin tree on credit from a man named Bu (unknown background and address) for 17 million VND. Huy told Bu that he would pay him back when he sold it. In addition, Bu also gave Huy 34 pink pills for his use.
At 4 p.m. the same day, Kha Van Vinh came to Huy's house to play. Huy told Vinh that a man bought a stick of heroin and invited Vinh to deliver the "goods" with him. Vinh agreed.
On the way, Huy told Vinh that after delivering the “goods” he would give him money to ransom the motorbike. After that, the two took the motorbike to deliver the drugs to Linh. When they arrived at the agreed location to deliver the goods, Huy and Vinh were caught red-handed by the police.
At the trial, Huy and Vinh confessed to all their crimes. The panel sentenced defendant Moong Van Huy to 15 years in prison and Kha Van Vinh to 12 years in prison.
