Previously, the police had arrested Tran Thanh Tuan (aka Tuan "B", 35 years old) - Tri "Nham's" rival, while hiding in the Central region. According to the investigation, on June 3, in An Lac A ward (Binh Tan district), a fight broke out between two groups of female students. Standing outside watching, Ho Chi Linh (29 years old, Tuan "B's" junior, a gangster in Binh Tan district) was called "mean" by Nguyen Xuan Thanh (implying that men do not stop girls from fighting). The two sides used harsh words to threaten each other.
Thanh returned home and called many friends to come to Linh's house in An Lac A ward to beat her up and threatened to burn down the house, but they didn't meet him. Linh then went online to curse Thanh and threatened to "deal with him".
Listening to Linh's story, Tuan "B" called on dozens of people to gather at the highway ramp in Binh Chanh district to avenge his juniors. Although Tuan and Thanh's boss (Tri "Nham") were friends before, often drinking and singing karaoke together. This group brought many weapons, telling each other to take off their shirts to easily distinguish "us - enemies" when looking for Thanh's group.
However, this plan was discovered and stopped by the Criminal Police Department. Thanh asked Tri "Nham" to help. Tri went online to call on a crowd of 14-16 year old teenagers, promising to give them 100,000-400,000 VND to fight. This group bought orange shirts (football players' training shirts) to easily distinguish them from their opponents, and came from all over to the Oc Huong restaurant (Tuan "B"'s favorite restaurant). Not seeing Tuan, they shouted, cursed, smashed the restaurant, and then left.

According to Mr. Nam, this case shows that crime is getting younger due to the lack of attention and education from families and local authorities. "Of course, the police are responsible for security and order, but through this we see that we really need the participation and cooperation of the whole society," said the Head of the Criminal Police Department.
