In Bình Thuận Province, a 25-year-old man, Đỗ Đức Bình, has been detained by the local Investigation Police on suspicion of murder. The arrest followed approval from the provincial People's Procuracy and comes amidst ongoing investigations into a tragic incident involving the death of a young child.

 

The case unfolded on May 27 when police in Mũi Né Ward, Phan Thiết City, received a report from Ngô Thị Loan, a 35-year-old mother. Loan reported that her three-year-old daughter appeared to have been abused. Earlier that day, Loan found her daughter unconscious when attempting to wake her and rushed her to Bình Thuận General Hospital for emergency medical assistance.

 

Medical staff at the hospital identified numerous serious injuries on the child’s body, prompting an urgent transfer to Children’s Hospital No.1 in Ho Chi Minh City for further treatment. Sadly, despite the efforts of medical professionals, the child succumbed to severe brain trauma, passing away on May 28.

 

Loan had recently separated from her spouse and was living with Bình, alongside her daughter. During questioning, Bình confessed to the authorities that he lost his temper and struck the child repeatedly after being disturbed by her crying while he attempted to sleep.

 

As further investigations proceed, the community is grappling with the shock of this incident, highlighting the grave consequences of domestic violence. Authorities are thoroughly probing the circumstances to ensure justice is served in this heart-wrenching case.
