Quang Tri police arrest individuals for online misconduct

Quang Tri provincial police have arrested several individuals for activities categorized as “online gangster” behavior. Nguyen Tan Thang, born in 1993, and his brother Nguyen Tan Loi, born in 1995, were detained on charges of “disturbing public order” following an incident in July 2026 where they used weapons to assault an individual at a local eatery.

Additionally, authorities identified two minors, Nguyen Van Nhan and Pham Anh Tuấn, who used TikTok to livestream self-harming acts to solicit digital gifts from viewers. Both individuals had previously been prosecuted for disturbing public order in late 2025. The minors were issued administrative fines of 17.5 million VND each, had their mobile devices confiscated, and were ordered to return all illicitly gained funds.
