HCMC – The Danang Police Department on June 17 filed charges against the directors of four companies for allegedly organizing the illegal entry of foreigners into Vietnam.

Son and Cuong were detained, while Hoat and Thu were put under house arrest as they had turned themselves in and cooperated with the police.

Earlier, the Danang Police Department had prosecuted seven people, including three directors and a Chinese national, for their involvement in the ring.

According to the preliminary results of the police investigation, the directors provided guarantees to Chinese and South Korean people and helped them enter Vietnam as foreign experts, when they were actually unskilled workers.

After entering Vietnam, these foreigners did not work for these companies.
