Talking to Lao Dong on the evening of June 19, BTV Quang Minh confirmed that he would sue HIUP milk company after a series of company leaders were prosecuted.
I confirm that the information on Facebook is true, I am not joking. After receiving the information that the company... was being prosecuted, I was very confused. After a period of hesitation, I worked with a lawyer and will file a lawsuit on the company's side... The lawsuit is not a matter of money but of my personal honor and image," said the male MC.
Previously, on his personal page, he wrote: "I was scammed. And I chose to speak up. Before the official information was just announced by the press agency about HIUP products showing signs of not meeting standards, it was even considered "fake milk". I have accepted a promotion for this product and feel the need to speak clearly and transparently.
I cooperate with HIUP based on many complete legal documents provided by them. Even after I was administratively punished for "advertising" HIUP, I still discussed with the brand, asking them to commit not to use my image, in addition to inviting the authorities to work to verify the product.
Specifically, most recently I received the paper like this: The quality test results from the Hanoi Food Safety Department on May 27, 2025 were " circulating"; product declaration forms, ingredient standards, and contracts have clear responsibility terms.
I do not produce, do not distribute, do not test, I am the person receiving the promotion based on trust in the legal documents provided by the business and my children's experience for a long time. I don't avoid it. And I am working with a lawyer to sue the brand because I have deceived myself in this case.
Also on June 19, the Investigation Police Agency of the Ministry of Public Security prosecuted a group of leaders of Z Holding Joint Stock Company to investigate the crime of "Violating accounting regulations causing serious consequences and Producing and trading counterfeit food goods".
Initial results determined that "HIUP 27 nutritional product" and many other types did not ensure the ingredients and nutritional content as stated in the product registration. Therefore, according to regulations, the above products are identified as counterfeit goods.
