Previously, on the evening of December 29, 2023, the Investigation Police Agency of Thanh Hoa Provincial Police issued a decision to prosecute the accused, search his residence and apply preventive measures to prohibit him from leaving his place of residence.
The former Secretary of Thanh Hoa Provincial Party Committee was prosecuted for violating regulations on management and use of state assets causing waste and loss, according to Clause 3, Article 219 of the Penal Code, related to the Hac Thanh Tower project.
Thanh Hoa Provincial Police Investigation Agency determined: In 2013, Mr. Trinh Van Chien was Chairman of Thanh Hoa Provincial People's Committee, Mr. Nguyen Dinh Xung was Vice Chairman of Thanh Hoa Provincial People's Committee.

Although Mr. Xung was assigned to be in charge of prices, when the Department of Finance submitted a request to the Thanh Hoa Provincial People's Committee to consider the plan to approve the land use fee of Song Ma Company, Mr. Chien still directly resolved it.
Accordingly, Mr. Chien directed the calculation of land use fees for Song Ma Joint Stock Company at the Hac Thanh Tower project according to the unit price determined 4 years earlier, and assigned Mr. Nguyen Dinh Xung to sign the decision.
After receiving instructions from Mr. Chien, Mr. Nguyen Dinh Xung signed a decision approving the land use fee that Song Ma Company must pay to the state.
During the investigation, the police determined that the approval of the above decision caused a loss to the state budget of nearly 56 billion VND.
The incident is being investigated and clarified by the authorities.
