On April 13, 2026, the Quảng Ninh Provincial People's Court tried the case of irregularities in the procurement of materials at Cọc Sáu Coal Company – Vinacomin (now Deo Nai – Cọc Sáu – TKV). The defendants included: Nguyễn Văn Thuấn (born 1970), former director; Nghiêm Xuân Hoan (born 1969), former Head of Materials; Lê Mạnh Thùy (born 1970), former Deputy Head of Materials; Đỗ Thị Tuyết Mai (born 1968), former storekeeper of Materials; Nguyễn Xuân Bách (born 1984), former employee of the Electrical and Mechanical Department; Lê Anh Cường (born 1973), former Head of the Electrical and Mechanical Department; Trần Ngọc Hưng (born 1980), former Deputy Head of the Technical Department; Phạm Thị Luyên (born 1984), former Deputy Head of Accounting; Lê Thị Huệ (born 1989), accounting staff; Trần Thị Hiền (born 1974), former accounting employee; Đoàn Quốc Khánh (born 1992), actual owner of Industrial Equipment and Construction Company; Phạm Thị Mai Tuyết (born 1977), freelance accountant hired by Khánh. The panel determined that between 2019 and 2022, the defendants executed nine contracts for the procurement of automotive spare parts for production. In the process, they signed contracts purchasing parts branded MAN, but in fact imported parts branded HOWO, at a lower price. Although aware of the mislabeling of type and origin, the defendants still performed acceptance, warehousing, and payment in accordance with the signed contracts, causing losses to the company of more than 536 million VND. During the investigation and at the trial, the defendants confessed and voluntarily remedied the consequences with more than 844 million VND, exceeding the damages caused. Doàn Quốc Khánh paid 500 million VND, Nguyễn Văn Thuấn paid 200 million VND. These are important mitigating factors considered by the panel in determining the sentence. The panel found that the defendants’ acts infringed the proper operation of the state-owned enterprise and affected economic management in the coal mining sector. However, due to limited consequences, their good conduct and full remediation, imprisonment was not deemed necessary and they were given suspended sentences to reform locally. At the end of the trial, the panel sentenced Nguyễn Văn Thuấn and Đoàn Quốc Khánh to 18 months in prison suspended; the remaining defendants were sentenced to 2 to 9 months in prison suspended.
