Previously, through local intelligence gathering, the Economic Police Department of Ninh Binh Provincial Police, in collaboration with the Provincial Food Safety Sub-Department, conducted an inspection of Tran Thi Hanh’s bean sprout production facility. The business is located in Ninh Cuong Commune, Ninh Binh Province.
During the inspection, the task force discovered nearly 1,400 kg of bean sprouts stored in 239 plastic jars. Tran Thi Hanh had mixed a chemical known as “candy water” to accelerate the growth of the bean sprouts, making them larger, more visually appealing, and easier to sell.
The Investigative Police Agency of the Provincial Police Department submitted samples of the bean sprouts for laboratory analysis. According to the conclusion from the Institute of Criminal Science under the Ministry of Public Security, “all bean sprout samples collected from Tran Thi Hanh’s production facility contained 6-Benzylaminopurine (6-BAP).” This substance is not listed among permitted food additives as per Circular No. 24, dated August 30, 2019, issued by the Ministry of Health, which regulates food additive management and usage.
