A policeman reads the arrest warrant to Thanh at his house yesterday |
They took in Nguyen Van Thanh, 28, and four hoods -- Nguyen Thanh Liem, 42, Bui Thanh Son, 30, Thoang Xuong On, 23, and Duong Quoc Hung.
They are hunting for two others thought to be involved in the case.
Last January Thanh ordered his employee to hire gangsters to assault Pham Kieu Thanh Lan, who is in charge of land in the city’s Ward 10, and Nguyen Ngoc Tuan of the Vung Tau Urban Greenery Development Company to avenge their “interference” in his affairs.
After slashing the two with knives, the hoods also grabbed her handbag and mobile phone.
The officials were seriously injured but recovered after treatment.
Thanh reportedly paid VND30 million (US$1,430) to Son, the boss of the gang.
Earlier, in November, Thanh, the director of Nguyen Thanh Co Ltd and Song Nguyen Tourism Investment Co Ltd, illegally bought a lot of forest land in Ward 10.
He then divided the land into several parts and built houses and foundations to sell them.
Local agencies discovered this and forced him to raze the buildings and restore the land to its original state.
After arresting Thanh, the police searched his house and office and found many documents, with some related to land and housing appearing to show signs of fraud.
The police are investigating further.
