A tourism firm director in Da Nang was arrested for tricking people that she could have them repatriated to Vietnam amid the Covid-19 pandemic for up to VND70 million ($2,800) each.

Tran Thi Hoang Anh, 29, director of the Nhi Anh Tourism and Trading Service company, on Sunday was arrested to be investigated for "obtaining property by fraud."

The company, based in Da Nang's Ngu Hanh Son District, was not approved to bring people back to Vietnam from outside the country during the heights of the Covid-19 pandemic last year.
