| Subject Phan Doan Nghia |
On November 25, 2012, Phan Doan Nghia called Mr. Hoang Van Trong and bargained that if he wanted to stop the lawsuit, he would have to pay 10 million VND, but Mr. Trong did not accept. Since then, Phan Doan Nghia has gathered and persuaded a number of people in the neighborhood to file a complaint to a higher level, including sending it to a number of central and local press agencies.
Although the competent authorities have intervened to resolve the issue, and on May 8, 2015, the People's Committee of Nghe An province issued Official Letter No. 2804/UBND-KT regarding the review and resolution of citizens' petitions. However, Phan Doan Nghia still did not accept the official letter of the People's Committee of the province and frequently called the district and provincial leaders, causing trouble during working hours.

From 8:58 a.m. on July 30 to 7:05 a.m. on July 31, Phan Doan Nghia used his mobile phone to call Mr. Trong 4 times, requesting him to pay the full amount of 20 million VND. The location to receive the money would be announced later and the information would not be disclosed. If Mr. Trong accepted, he would stop filing the lawsuit.
