PHẠM ĐÔNG - TRẦN VƯƠNG |

A representative of the Ministry of Public Security has provided information about the false rumor that "ACB bank leaders gamble and transfer money abroad".

On the afternoon of January 8, at the regular Government press conference in December 2024, Major General Hoang Anh Tuyen - Deputy Chief of Office, spokesman of the Ministry of Public Security - informed about fabricated cases on social networks about leaders of Asia Commercial Joint Stock Bank (ACB) gambling and transferring tens of millions of USD abroad.

Major General Hoang Anh Tuyen said that the dissemination of false, slanderous and fabricated news is a very worrying phenomenon, a sign of social moral degradation. The above acts, depending on the severity, can be subject to administrative sanctions or criminal prosecution.

The spokesman for the Ministry of Public Security gave an example of last year, when Ms. Nguyen Phuong Hang - General Director of Dai Nam Joint Stock Company - was punished by Ho Chi Minh City Police for providing false information.

Regarding the false information related to ACB Bank, Major General Hoang Anh Tuyen said that so far, the authorities have not received any petitions from the relevant parties. The spokesperson of the Ministry of Public Security affirmed that when there are petitions, the police will handle them according to the provisions of the law.

The spokesperson of the Ministry of Public Security also emphasized that acts of spreading false, inaccurate, slanderous, and defamatory information on social networks will be strictly handled, especially acts that negatively affect economic, financial, monetary, and investment security.

At the same time, expressed the hope that media agencies would coordinate to disseminate information and push back bad and toxic information.

Previously, some individuals used social media to livestream information about "ACB leaders gambling and transferring money abroad". Then, on the evening of January 4, ACB issued an official statement denying the false information being spread on social media related to senior leaders.

According to ACB's announcement, this false information risks causing confusion and public opinion, negatively affecting the financial and monetary security of the finance and banking sector in Vietnam.

The bank has collected all posted content and spread of false information in accordance with legal procedures to report the incident to competent management agencies for handling in accordance with the law.
