In a startling case of betrayal, a man in Tay Ninh Province, southern Vietnam, has been identified by police as the mastermind behind the theft of US$2 million from his own parents. Unnamed by authorities, the son reportedly staged the robbery by scheming with accomplices who posed as police officers.

 

On March 10, the son informed three associates—Dao Xuan Loc, Nguyen Tuan Anh, and Nguyen Anh Duy—about the location of the cash his parents had recently acquired from a business deal. Disguised as law enforcement, the trio arrived at the parents' home, feigning an inspection to verify the foreign currency's legitimacy.

 

Convinced of the impostors' authenticity, the parents cooperated by heading to a fabricated police station for further questioning. This allowed the three men to seize the opportunity, absconding with the money while the parents were distracted.

 

 

 

The incident was promptly reported to the actual authorities, leading to swift action. Police issued arrest warrants, ultimately capturing the suspects several hundred kilometers away in Gia Lai Province after they tried evading capture by moving between locations.

 

Additionally, two accomplices related to the crime were detained, and police successfully recovered the entire stolen sum. The incident underscores a dramatic breach of familial trust, as the son exploited his parents' vulnerability for personal gain. The arrested individuals now face legal proceedings as investigations continue into this elaborate heist, reported VN Express.
