The move was made at decisions and orders by the Ministry of Public Security and approved by the Supreme People’s Procuracy the same day. The ministry is currently accelerating the investigation into the case in line with the provisions of the law.
Son has been disciplined by having his status as former Minister of Information and Communications of the 2011-2016 tenure erased.
On October 6 last year, the Party Central Committee disciplined Son by stripping him of the status of a member of the Party Central Committee of the 11th tenure and the Secretary of the Party Committee of the ministry of the 2011-2016 tenure.
He was also held by the Politburo to bear the main responsibility for the wrongdoings of the Party Committee of the ministry in its 2011-2016 tenure.
Son’s wrongdoings and a number of other individuals are rated as very serious, causing a great loss of the State assets, negatively affecting the operation and equitisation of MobiFone telecommunications group as well as the prestige of the Party organisations and the ministry, causing discontent in the society.
Meanwhile, Tuan has been removed from the post of the Minister of Information and Communications.
