On September 4th, the Ministry of Public Security announced that the C03 Investigation Police Agency for Corruption, Economic, and Smuggling Crimes has expanded its investigation into a fraud case involving Egroup Joint Stock Education Group.
The expanded scope of the investigation includes allegations of “fraud, bribery, and corruption” within Egroup, Egame Joint Stock Investment and Distribution Company, Nhat Tran Commercial Services Joint Stock Company, and several related entities, as per the official decision to initiate criminal proceedings dated March 21, 2024, and its supplement dated December 1, 2024.
Thus far, the investigation has uncovered evidence implicating 23 Egame business managers as accomplices to Nguyen Ngoc Thuy, Egroup’s Chairman and CEO, in the fraud scheme. These individuals have been identified as: (1) Nguyen Thi Dung (Nguyen Ngoc Thuy’s sister), (2) Nguyen Van Son (Nguyen Ngoc Thuy’s brother), (3) Nguyen Trong Vu (Nguyen Thi Dung’s husband), and others, as detailed in the paragraph above.
On August 25, C03 issued decisions to prosecute and apply preventive measures, including search warrants, against the 23 aforementioned individuals for their involvement in the fraud scheme. Four of them, including Nguyen Thi Dung, Vu Thi Dung, Bui Kim Thuy, and Tran Thi Thanh Nga, were subjected to travel bans due to their cooperation during the investigation process and their stable residential status. The remaining 19 individuals were detained.
With the approval of the Supreme People’s Procuracy, C03, in collaboration with prosecutors, executed the decisions and orders in accordance with legal procedures. The detained suspects were safely transported to detention facilities, and the searches of their residences yielded relevant documents and files.
The C03 agency is diligently pursuing further investigations and taking necessary legal measures to recover assets. Organizations, individuals, and businesses implicated in the case are encouraged to proactively report to the Investigation Police Agency of the Ministry of Public Security, located at 47 Pham Van Dong, Phu Dien, Hanoi, and cooperate with investigator Tạ Quang Huy (phone: 0967844475) to rectify their wrongdoings and receive consideration for lenient treatment under the law.
