'Why are so many corrupt people mentally ill!'
Last week, the public across the country witnessed the usual "drama" of officials when they were "caught" by inspection, examination and investigation agencies!
To be fair, not just Mr. Trinh Xuan Thanh, many officials, whenever summoned by the investigation agency or the court, have a “legitimate reason” that they are in the hospital or undergoing medical treatment! Once, the former head of the National Assembly’s Judicial Committee exclaimed: “Why are so many corrupt people mentally ill?”
Perhaps in our country the proverb "sick and old" has more or less affected the activities of the prosecution agencies.
Previously, in the early 1990s, in the corruption case that occurred at the National Reserve Department, the main role in the case was Mr. T., the deputy director, but for some reason Mr. T. was "mentally ill", so the case was "cut into pieces".
In Tien Giang, Mr. Nguyen Van Nen - former deputy head of the provincial police investigation department - was about to be prosecuted but was also mentally ill and had to be separated and could not be tried.
In many cases, simply because the litigant is "sick", it causes difficulties for the prosecution agency.
In the La Thi Kim Oanh case, the court intended to summon a high-ranking leader to appear in court as a witness, but upon hearing that, he had to "go to the emergency room".
There is also a former minister who was prosecuted in the Duong Chi Dung scandal. Before he appeared in court, he claimed to be sick and had to be separated and dealt with later.
Recently, the Ministry of Public Security's Investigation Agency initiated a case of fraud and property appropriation that occurred in Vung Tau City, and some related officials also "reported illness" and were released on bail.
The situation of officials making mistakes and calling in sick is quite common nowadays but there is no specific "cure" for it.
While the General Secretary was directing and the Politburo was inspecting and clarifying the loss of more than 3,000 billion VND at the Petroleum Construction Joint Stock Corporation (PVC); the Prime Minister assigned the Ministry of Public Security and the Government Inspectorate to clarify the violations of Mr. Trinh Xuan Thanh, he asked for leave to "treat his illness"!
Not knowing how the staff management is, few people know where Mr. Thanh took medical leave or what his health condition is?
The public is very concerned about the “illness” of Mr. Trinh Xuan Thanh. Perhaps in the near future, Mr. Trinh Xuan Thanh will present a “medical record” or a forensic examination conclusion on his illness to the organization, and if Mr. Trinh Xuan Thanh’s illness is “serious”, will the review and handling of Mr. Thanh be continued or not?
"Cure" Many people think that the phrase "chay sick" should be added after the words: "chay position", "chay power", "chay sentence", "chay rotation"... Among them, “getting medical treatment” is easier than getting anything else. Moreover, who can check the authenticity of medical records and forensic examinations? Although according to the law, forensic conclusions are only a source of evidence for the prosecution agency to refer to, they have the right to believe or not. However, in practice, even if we do not believe the prosecuting agency, we do not dare to reject it, because we do not have this expertise. At most, a re-examination is required, but there has never been a case where the prosecution agency outright rejected it. This is also a very hard and safe "turtle shell" for corrupt officials to hide! |
