Public disorder prosecutions in Vietnam

Overview

Authorities in Vietnam have initiated criminal proceedings against groups of youths involved in violent street confrontations.

In Dak Lak, police prosecuted 13 individuals, including minors and students, for public disorder following a confrontation involving knives, machetes, and beer bottles. The incident reportedly began as a retaliatory action by a group of approximately 30 people after one individual was allegedly targeted with flashlights and slingshots.

In Phu Tho, police prosecuted eight teenagers for “disturbing public order” related to a trend known as “di Leo.” The group, which used masks and removed license plates to evade detection, allegedly used swords, slingshots, and glass bottles to attack strangers on the road. The pursuit resulted in a collision that caused a victim to suffer a broken leg and led to the theft of the victim’s license plate.
