Earlier, on September 19, 2017, the investigation agency started the case of “abusing trust to appropriate property.” This agency arrested Hong for “irresponsibility causing serious consequences” and Lam for “abusing trust to appropriate property” first, then the remaining defendants.

According to the investigation results, Lam appropriated more than VND50 billion ($2.2 million) from various customers between 2012 and 2016 by forging documents. Lam usually invited VIP guests to the bank to sign first and completed documents later. Using these signatures, Lam had composed withdrawal orders herself and submitted completed the documentation to submit to the leaders.

The other defendants committed various wrongdoings while working at the branch, assisting Lam to appropriate customers’ money.
