Thien Minh Duc Group corruption investigation

Overview

The Supreme People's Procuracy has indicted Chu Thi Thanh, Chairwoman of Thien Minh Duc Group, for embezzlement and the illegal trading of invoices and documents. Prosecutors allege that Thanh embezzled 79 billion VND from the Petroleum Price Stabilization Fund and earned over 20 billion VND through the illegal sale of invoices.

Several high-ranking officials from Thien Minh Duc Group, including deputy general directors and the chief accountant, have also been prosecuted. Additionally, two accountants from PVoil Vung Ang and Thien Minh Duc face embezzlement charges, with approximately 20 other defendants facing prosecution for related crimes.

Investigations indicate that starting in early 2020, Thanh directed subordinates to sell petroleum without VAT invoices at lower prices to attract customers during COVID-19 related business difficulties. The case has been transferred to the Hanoi People's Court for trial.
