On January 2, Ms. NTN (residing in Quang Nam province, owner of the torn lottery ticket) said that Hue City Lottery Company Limited (abbreviated as Hue Lottery Company - PV) had returned 12 million VND along with the police's verification results.

Previously, Ms. N's legal representative came to work with the company and was given the appraisal results and the appraisal fee of 12 million VND as mentioned above.

Ms. N. also said that she had paid 36 million VND in advance for the court fees of the civil lawsuit between her and Hue Lottery Company to the People's Court of Huong Thuy Town (Hue City).

According to Ms. N., she borrowed this money from relatives to pay to the court and is determined to pursue this lawsuit to the end. The court has now accepted the case.

Lawyer Nguyen Van Ky (legal representative of Ms. N. in this lawsuit) also said that he is preparing the necessary procedures to be ready for this civil lawsuit.

Previously, Huong Thuy Town People's Court requested Ms. N. to supplement the results of the real and fake appraisal of the Criminal Technique Department of Thua Thien Hue Provincial Police (now Hue City Police).

Ms. N. went to the police to request a copy of the lottery ticket appraisal conclusion that the unit had previously conducted, but the police refused to provide it. The reason was that the entity requesting the appraisal with the police was the Hue Lottery Company.

Therefore, to ensure the principle of information confidentiality, the police refused to provide the appraisal results to Ms. N. and only provided them when the Hue Lottery Company agreed in writing.
