Seventeen people are charged with receiving bribes, giving bribes, abusing positions of power and concealing crimes. These offences occurred in Thái Nguyên and several other provinces and cities.
In May 2024, the police agency issued a conclusion on the investigation, but in July, the Supreme People's Procuracy decided to return the dossier for further investigation.
With more than 391 million shares sold at their inflated value, the defendants accumulated more than VNĐ4.8 trillion ($190 million) and embezzled over VNĐ3.6 trillion ($142.4 million) of stock investors, according to the prosecutors.
