Son beats father to death

On May 23, Kon Tum Provincial People's Court held a mobile first-instance trial and sentenced defendant A Thuoc (20 years old, residing in Dak Pne commune, Kon Ray district, Kon Tum province) to 18 years in prison for the crime of "Murder".

According to the People's Court, due to anger at his father's frequent drinking and beating of his mother, on the afternoon of November 27, 2022, A Thuoc left his house to go to his father's house, Mr. A Poi (born in 1982) to ask him what happened. There, an argument broke out between the father and son. Angry, A Thuoc went behind the house to get a crowbar and hit Mr. A Poi many times, causing him to fall down and bleed.

When the neighbors intervened, A Thuoc stopped. When the neighbors left, Mr. A Poi went out into the yard, and A Thuoc continued to hit the victim many times with a wooden stick, causing him to fall to the ground.

After committing the crime, A Thuoc left Mr. A Poi lying on the ground and went home. At around 4:30 p.m. the same day, a female neighbor discovered Mr. A Poi lying motionless in the yard and reported the incident to the police. When the police arrived at the scene, Mr. A Poi had died from massive blood loss. A Thuoc was also arrested shortly thereafter.
