Shipper Tran Thanh delivered floor cleaner, carpet cleaner, and wet towels to Ms. T.T.T for a total order of 375,000 VND. The order was delivered by Mr. Thanh, but Ms. T had not yet paid. According to company regulations, Mr. Thanh had to call the customer to collect the money before receiving the 4,000 VND salary.
For a delivery that only received 4,000 VND in wages, Mr. Thanh had to call Ms. T to urge her to pay. Ms. T did not pay and even gave a “bad star” rating on the delivery app. This caused Mr. Thanh to be fined 500,000 VND by the company, not to mention he had to pay the amount that the customer did not pay.
Frustrated by being pushed into a corner, after drinking, at around 11pm on January 17, Mr. Tran Thanh went to Ms. T's house to resolve the conflict and a fight broke out, leading to Mr. Thanh's death.
Initial information shows that the cause started from Ms. T's late payment and "bad star" rating. If he had not been pressured to pay a fine of 500,000 VND, Mr. Thanh would not have gone to Ms. T's house to clarify right and wrong and there would not have been a murder case. Shipper Tran Thanh left in frustration, leaving behind his wife and children. The three suspects involved in the fight may face very severe punishment by law.
Responding to Lao Dong Newspaper, lawyer Le Van Thien - Da Nang City Bar Association said that the three people who beat a male delivery man to death in Da Nang could be prosecuted for "Murder" after the conclusion of the forensic examination and a full investigation.
The Investigation Police Agency of Hoa Vang District has prosecuted and temporarily detained Tran Van Minh Toan, Nguyen Thanh Tung and Tran Hoang Thien (T's younger brother) for the crime of "Intentionally causing injury". The case is a lesson for many people, especially those who prefer to use violence to resolve conflicts and contradictions.
When there is a conflict, it is necessary to control oneself, anger can easily cause harm to others and oneself. The three young men who participated in beating Mr. Tran Thanh must pay the price for their actions of disregarding the law.
Ms. T, who was dishonest in the transaction, told the press that she was very "regretful". It is true that Ms. T is very blameworthy. If she had paid immediately after receiving the goods, nothing would have happened.
But regret is meaningless when a life has been lost.
