HÀ NỘI — The Party Central Committee’s Inspection Commission issued disciplinary measures against several military officers at its recent 47th session, the commission announced on Monday.

The session was held in Hà Nội from August 11 to 13 chaired by Trần Cẩm Tú, Secretary of the Party Central Committee and head of the commission.

The commission found that four officers had violated the principle of democratic centralism, work regulations, and legal regulations on land management and use.

The four were Lt. Gen. Nguyễn Văn Thành, former Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee and former Commander of Army Corps 4; Lt. Gen. Trần Xuân Ninh, former member of the Standing Board of the Party Committee and former Deputy Commander of Army Corps 4; Col. Mai Văn Hào, former member of the Standing Board of the Party Committee and former Deputy Chief of Staff of Army Corps 4; and Col. Phan Văn Tiên, former Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee and former head of Army Corps 4’s logistics department.

Three others were found to have committed violations and revealed shortcomings while advising on and organising the implementation of production and business tasks, along with land investment, management and use.

Col. Nguyễn Xuân Đông, former Deputy Secretary of the Party cell and former head of the technique - technology division; Col. Phạm Bảo, former Deputy Secretary of the Party cell and former head of the division for economy - planning; and Col. Nguyễn Tuấn Anh, former Deputy Secretary of the Party cell and former head of the finance - accounting division of Army Corps 15 committed said violations.

Col. Nguyễn Văn Giang, former Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee of the Vietnam Military Medical University, revealed shortcomings in management and use of the school’s dormitory, according to the Inspection Commission.

The commission decided to issue warnings to Lt. Gen. Nguyễn Văn Thành, Lt. Gen. Trần Xuân Ninh, Col. Mai Văn Hào, Col. Phan Văn Tiên, and Col. Nguyễn Văn Giang, and reprimanded Col. Nguyễn Xuân Đông, Col. Phạm Bảo, and Col. Nguyễn Tuấn Anh.

As for Nguyễn Văn Quân, member of the Standing Board of the Gia Lai Provincial Party Committee and head of that committee’s organising board, the Inspection Commission found that while serving as a member of the Party Committee, Secretary of the Party unit and Chief Prosecutor of the provincial People’s Procuracy, he violated the principle of democratic centralism, work regulations, Party regulations, and State laws on directing the settlement of an asset misappropriation case.

Quân's actions hampered the investigation, prosecution, and trying of the case and harmed his and the Party's prestige.

The commission decided to give Quân a warning. — VNS
