Among the three suspects, Nguyen Thien An is an employee of the Nam Phuoc Transaction Office – An Binh Commercial Joint Stock Bank. The suspects were prosecuted for investigation into the crimes of “Forgery in the performance of official duties” and “Fraudulently appropriating assets”.
According to the investigation, from 2019 to 2022, besides his main job as the Director of the Nam Phuoc Transaction Office – An Binh Bank, Ha Hai Dang (born in 1989, residing in Cam Le district, Da Nang city) also engaged in real estate business.
Suspect Ha Hai Dang identified as embezzling 14 billion dongs
Dang borrowed money from many people and provided false information that the purpose of borrowing money was to settle bank maturity procedures for customers. In fact, Dang used the borrowed money to invest in real estate, but later he was unable to repay the debt. The total amount of money Dang embezzled from the victims was 14 billion dongs.
The investigation agency determined that during the fraudulent appropriation of assets, Dang also received assistance from Dung and Hien in providing false information, causing the victims to trust and hand over money to Dang for embezzlement.
In addition, Dang instructed An to forge documents related to maturity procedures to help deceive the victims and embezzle money.
Earlier, Ha Hai Dang was also prosecuted and temporarily detained by the Investigation Agency of Quang Nam province for his acts of fraudulently appropriating assets.
