On the afternoon of October 15, news from Le Thuy District Police (Quang Binh Province) said that they are coordinating to assess the injuries in the case of Mr. Ngo Van Lu being beaten when posting a poem on Facebook.
The police force coordinated with Hue Central Hospital to assess Mr. Ngo Van Lu's injuries. This helps to consolidate the case file, as a basis for handling according to the law.
Regarding the incident, the viewpoint of Le Thuy District Police is to strictly handle the incident, not cover up or condone it.
On the same day, Mr. Ngo Van Luyt (Mr. Lu's son) said that his father's health has not yet recovered.
“My father’s body is still sore and dizzy, his eyesight is not clear, he can sit up but the doctor asked him to lie down more. Regarding food, he only eats porridge and drinks milk” - Mr. Luyt said.
Previously, as reported by Lao Dong Newspaper, according to Mr. Ngo Van Luyt, on the evening of October 10, Mr. Ngo Van Luyt (55 years old, Mr. Luyt's father) and his wife, Mrs. Ngo Thi Mai (54 years old, Mr. Luyt's mother) were having dinner. At this time, suddenly a group of about 7 strangers in 2 cars broke into Mr. Luyt's house and assaulted his father.
These people beat his father until he fell unconscious on the spot. Mrs. Mai promptly ran out to the yard to call for help.
“At that time, those people grabbed my father’s legs and dragged him to the front porch and continued to beat him. When they saw the neighbors running over, they stopped and then left the scene in their car. When they left, the Ngu Thuy Commune Police force was present at my family’s house to record the incident,” said Mr. Luyt.
According to Mr. Luyt, the reason could be that on October 9 and 10, the Farmers' Association of Ngu Thuy commune organized a volleyball tournament. Due to poor organization, the teams complained to the Organizing Committee and withdrew from the tournament.
That's why Luyet's father wrote a poem about this volleyball tournament and posted it on Facebook. It's possible that from here, the above people came to Luyet's house to assault his father.
Ngu Thuy Commune Police (Le Thuy District, Quang Binh Province) summoned 7 people involved in the disturbance of public order and security that occurred at Mr. Ngo Van Lu's house. Initially, these people admitted to beating Mr. Lu because they felt offended.
