Gia Lai police prosecute six former teachers for budget embezzlement

The Gia Lai Provincial Police Investigation Agency has prosecuted six former teachers from Kon Pne Kindergarten in Dak Rong commune for their involvement in embezzling approximately 500 million VND from the state budget.

The individuals, including Bui Thi Phu, Nguyen Thi Mai, Le Thi My Tuong, Nguyen Thi Quynh Nga, Phung Thi Lan Anh, and Le Thi Min, have been charged with “misusing positions and powers while performing official duties.”

Investigations revealed that between 2023 and June 2025, these individuals collaborated with the former principal, Tran Thi Thu, and former treasurer, Nguyen Thi Linh, to create fraudulent teaching contract dossiers. Despite not actually teaching, the six former teachers used these fake documents to withdraw budget funds intended for salaries, insurance contributions, and union fees.
