The four are all residing in Hồ Chí Minh City and now barred from going outside their places of residence while searches will be conducted at their places of residence and work.
On the same day, criminal proceedings were also started for four others who were accused of breach of regulations on land management, as stipulated in Article No.229, the 2015 Penal Code, after the agency expanded probes into wrongdoings in projects related to Vũ in the central city of Đà Nẵng.
Among them, Đào Tấn Bằng, born in 1975, and Nguyễn Viết Vĩnh, born in 1978, were taken into custody by the police. Bang was former Deputy Chief of Office at the Đà Nẵng People’s Committee and now serves as Party Secretary of the city’s Industrial Parks; while Vinh was former head of unit for urban management at the municipal People’s Committee and at now, director of the city’s authority of inland port.
The other two are banned from leaving their places of residence, including Nguyễn Văn Cán and Phan Xuân Ít, former Chief and Deputy Chief of Office at the Đà Nẵng People’s Committee, respectively. They both were born in 1954.
The Supreme People’s Procuracy issued approvals for these procedural decisions in accordance with the provisions of law.
Earlier, Vũ, born in 1975 and residing in Hải Châu District, Đà Nẵng City, was charged with deliberately disclosing state secrets, tax evasion, abusing position and power while performing duties, and violating regulations on management and use of State assets, causing loss and wastefulness.
On July 30, the Hà Nội People’s Court sentenced Vũ to nine years in prison for “deliberately disclosing state secrets” under Article 337 of the 2015 Penal Code.
