Prosecution and temporary detention of two captains for organizing illegal exit for others

On October 29, the Investigation Security Agency, An Giang Provincial Police, announced that it had issued a decision to prosecute the case, prosecute the accused, and execute arrest warrants for two suspects to temporarily detain and investigate the act of organizing illegal exit for others.

The Provincial Police Department's Investigation Security Agency issued a decision to prosecute the case, prosecute the accused and execute an arrest warrant for the accused Nguyen Van Nhan.

The Provincial Police Department's Investigation Security Agency issued a decision to prosecute the case, prosecute the accused and execute an arrest warrant for Su Thanh Hoai.

Through investigation, it was determined that the defendant Su Thanh Hoai (born in 1976, residing in Rach Gia ward) was the captain of fishing boat KG-96103-TS; the defendant Nguyen Van Nhan (born in 1977, residing in Rach Gia ward, An Giang province) was the captain of fishing boat KG-94781-TS.

On February 6, Hoai and Nhan drove two fishing boats with a number of fishermen from Tac Cau port (Binh An commune, An Giang province) to Ca Mau sea to catch seafood. However, due to low catch, the two discussed and agreed to take the boat and fishermen to foreign waters to catch seafood.

Upon arriving at the Vietnam-Indonesia border area, the two suspects instructed fishermen to attach fake license plates to the boat and turn off the tracking device, then steer the boat to Indonesian waters to exploit seafood to avoid detection by authorities.

During the operation in Indonesian waters (about 6 days), Nhan's ship had engine damage, so Hoai used his ship to tow Nhan's fishing boat KG-94781-TS back to Vietnam for repairs.

Upon arriving in Vietnam’s waters, both vessels were discovered by Coast Guard Region 4 and taken to headquarters for questioning. The case was then transferred to the An Giang Provincial Police Security Investigation Agency for investigation under its authority.

Implementing the direction of the Prime Minister and the Ministry of Public Security on preventing and combating illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing, An Giang Provincial Police recommends that fishermen raise awareness, understand clearly, voluntarily and strictly comply with legal regulations in the process of exploiting and catching seafood, especially implementing the recommendations of the European Commission (EC) to join hands to protect sovereignty, develop the economy, and contribute to removing the EC's yellow card for our country's fisheries industry.
