Hoàng Bin |

The Deputy General Director of Hoi An Public Works Joint Stock Company was sentenced to 5 years in prison for accepting bribes and colluding in bid rigging.

On October 2, the People's Court of Quang Nam province announced that it had brought to trial the case of "Giving bribes" and "Receiving bribes" that occurred at Hoi An Public Works Joint Stock Company (CTCC).

According to the case file, in November 2016, Quang Nam province approved the Project “Piloting the use of 4-wheel electric vehicles to transport tourists within Hoi An city”. Hoi An Transport Joint Stock Company was assigned to bid for the purchase of electric vehicles and operate the business.

In February 2017, the Board of Directors of Hoi An CTCC Joint Stock Company established Hoi An Electric Vehicle Company Limited and assigned Nguyen Quoc Tien (born in 1974), currently Deputy General Director of Hoi An CTCC Joint Stock Company, to take overall responsibility for managing all activities of purchasing equipment and vehicles to serve the company's operations.

During the process of preparing the bidding documents for the purchase of electric vehicles, Tran Quang Kim Son (born in 1978), an employee of Dai Phat Tin Company Limited, colluded with Tien to legalize the documents so that Son's company could win the bid to supply 30 electric vehicles, worth more than 7.3 billion VND.

After winning the bid, Son transferred 155 million VND in "commission" to Tien.

After receiving the electric car and putting it into use, the car's tires often broke down. Tien asked Dai Phat Tin Company Limited to perform warranty and repair. If they did not do so, Hoi An Electric Car Company Limited would not pay the remaining amount of 1.2 billion VND according to the contract.

At this time, Son continued to transfer 250 million VND to Tien's wife's bank account, to avoid performing the warranty and Tien agreed. In total, Tien received 405 million VND in bribes from Son.

After reviewing the case file, the panel of judges decided to sentence defendant Tien to 5 years in prison for the crime of "Receiving bribes" and defendant Son to 18 months in prison for the crime of "Giving bribes".
