(Baonghean.vn) - After receiving the "contract" to transport drugs, Dung hired two other subjects to transport drugs from Nghe An to Dak Lak. When the two accomplices were arrested, Dung quickly fled and was wanted.

On October 27, the People's Court of Nghe An province opened a trial of the defendants Ha Thi Be Dung (born in 1992, from Que Phong district, Nghe An province, residing in Ea Kueh commune, Cu M'Gar district, Dak Lak province), Ha Thi Mui (born in 1979, residing in Chau Tien commune, Quy Chau district, Nghe An province) and Truong Van Thinh (2003, residing in Tu Nghia district, Quang Ngai province) for the crime of "Illegal transportation of narcotics".

According to the indictment, in early September 2022, Dung returned to her hometown in Que Phong to visit and was hired by a Mong ethnic man to transport drugs from Nghe An to Dak Lak for a fee of 70 million VND.

Dung agreed and then contacted and hired Thinh to go to Nghe An to transport drugs for a salary of 13 million VND.

On October 16, 2022, Dung instructed Thinh to take a bus to Kim Son town, Que Phong district, to wait for the "goods" and then bring them back to him. On the same day, Dung called to hire a relative named Mui to transport the drugs for a fee of 13 million VND.

The next morning, following Dung's orders, Mui rode a motorbike to Doc Chuoi area, Chau Thon commune, to receive drugs from an unknown person. From the phone number Dung provided, Mui delivered the drugs to Thinh at the Kim Son town bus station.

On the same day, Thinh took a bus to bring drugs back to Dak Lak. However, when he reached National Highway 1A, in Dien Yen commune, Dien Chau district, Truong Van Thinh was arrested by the police with nearly 1.2 kg of drugs.

Based on Thinh's testimony, the police arrested Ha Thi Mui and issued an emergency detention order for Dung. However, Dung quickly fled the area.

Therefore, on June 9, 2023, Nghe An Police issued a wanted notice for Ha Thi Be Dung for the crime of Illegally transporting narcotics. On June 28, Dung was arrested according to the wanted notice while hiding in Dak Lak.

At the trial, all three defendants admitted to their crimes. As the ringleader, Dung confessed that because he was greedy for 70 million VND, he agreed to transport drugs for the Mong people. The defendant did not directly carry out the transaction but hired a relative named Mui and Thinh, whom he knew through social networks. After learning that his accomplices were arrested, the defendant fled to Dak Lak.

The two remaining defendants also honestly admitted their crimes and said they transported drugs for hire for 13 million VND.

As the ringleader, defendant Ha Thi Be Dung was sentenced to life in prison. The other two defendants, Ha Thi Mui and Truong Van Thinh, were each sentenced to 20 years in prison for illegal drug trafficking.
