Seven more people arrested after death of 24-year-old man

The Ben Tre Police Investigation Agency today (November 2) prosecuted and detained 7 suspects aged 16-21 to investigate the act of "Murder".

This is the result of an expanded investigation into the case of Mai Nhat Danh (24 years old, residing in Ben Tre City) who was hacked to death in March this year. Previously, the investigation agency had prosecuted and detained 3 suspects.

According to the initial investigation, on March 28, Dang Nguyen The Thanh (24 years old) had a conflict and fought with Tran Hoang Kiet. Kiet told the story to Tran Vo Thanh Tai.

Kiet's group of 4 people went to Ward 6, Ben Tre City to find Thanh's group to resolve the conflict but could not find them so they left.

After that, Thanh (in Kiet's group) asked Thanh to go to a drinking place in neighborhood 3, Phu Tan ward to "talk".

Thanh drove Mai Nhat Danh to the restaurant on a motorbike to meet Thanh's group and the two sides had a conflict. Thanh and his friend used a gun to shoot Danh. The people in Thanh's group used glasses, chairs, homemade knives, and electric flashlights to chase and attack Danh.

Danh used a homemade knife to fight back, but was stabbed once in the neck by Tai.

Danh ran away but Thanh's group continued to chase him. After a while, Danh fell down, Tai used a knife to slash his leg, causing the victim to lose consciousness and die. Tai and the other suspects left the scene.
