On December 1, Thai Binh Provincial Police said that this was to serve the investigation to expand the case of Mr. Luu Binh Nhuong, 60 years old, former deputy of the People's Petition Committee of the National Assembly Standing Committee, and Pham Minh Cuong (aka Cuong "quat", has 3 previous convictions) for the act of extortion.

The investigation agency has requested that provinces and cities compile a list of received documents and the results of processing them that Mr. Nhuong sent as a National Assembly delegate (14th term, 2016-2021) and as Deputy Head of the People's Aspirations Committee.

Mr. Liu Pingruong was arrested on the evening of November 14.

Previously, on the evening of November 14, Thai Binh Provincial Police temporarily detained Mr. Luu Binh Nhuong when he arrived at Noi Bai Airport. The authorities also searched Mr. Nhuong's residence and workplace for several hours, seizing many objects and documents showing signs of violating the law.

Initially, authorities accused Mr. Nhuong of being an accomplice of Cuong "quat" - a notorious gangster in Thai Binh.

Cuong and his accomplices were accused of illegally establishing rights to use tidal flats in Thai Binh and then saying that sand mining activities affected aquaculture. They pressured sand mining businesses to pay according to the volume of mining, or to resell sand at a low price. With this trick, from 2020 to 2022, Cuong's group appropriated billions of dong.

According to Thai Binh Provincial Police, this is an especially serious case, causing outrage among the people and seriously affecting the province's investment environment.

Mr. Luu Binh Nhuong is from Thai Binh; PhD in Economic Law. Before running for the 14th National Assembly in Ben Tre, he was the Director and Deputy Chief of the Office of the Central Steering Committee for Judicial Reform. In September 2018, Mr. Nhuong was mobilized by the National Assembly Standing Committee and appointed to the position of Deputy Head of the People's Aspirations Committee until his arrest.
