At the beginning of the situation, Ms. Nhung (50 years old) showed off to her friend - Ms. Huong (55 years old) that her son had a lover and was about to get married. Hearing that, Mrs. Huong became even more upset because her son Hoa (35 years old) was still single. Under pressure from his mother and friends, Hoa decided to try to find a girlfriend through an online dating application.
From here, Hoa met Y (20 years old) - a pretty, sweet girl. However, behind Y is Minh (22 years old), her real boyfriend, who is carrying a large debt. Minh and Y made a plan to defraud and target Hoa to appropriate property. Believing that the new relationship was about to bloom, Hoa agreed to go out with Italy. During the meeting, Minh suddenly appeared, attacked Hoa and together with Y took possession of the motorbike. The shock did not stop there, Hoa was stabbed many times with a knife and collapsed on the spot.
From a legal perspective, Dr. Vu Minh - Head of the Department of Administrative Law, University of Economics and Law, Vietnam National University, Ho Chi Minh City - commented that this is a case with signs of at least two crimes: acts of intentionally causing injury or murder, and acts of robbery. He emphasized that appropriating property when the victim has lost the ability to defend is a particularly serious act that needs to be strictly handled.
From a psychological and social perspective, Dr. To Nhi A believes that Hoa was too hasty in finding love. She analyzed that pressure from her mother was also a "push" that made him lose his alertness when connecting with strangers. In any relationship, calmness and alertness are key factors. Love needs time to prove, we should not rush to consider a new acquaintance as a " piece of the whole life", the doctor emphasized.
Through this hypothetical situation, the program sends the message: online dating is not wrong, but you need to be alert, vigilant and know how to protect yourself. At the same time, parents should also accompany and orient their children instead of creating pressure, accidentally pushing their children into immature choices.
