The decision to prosecute has been approved by the Long Biên District People's Procuracy and conveyed to the defendant on Wednesday evening.

On March 19, the police received a report from the family of N.H.Đ, a 14-year-old student in Long Biên District, regarding the incident where he was severely injured while playing at Lệ Mật communal house yard in Việt Hưng Ward.

He was rushed to Hospital 108 for emergency treatment.

The Long Biên District’s police promptly investigated the case.

Based on documents and collected evidence, the police determined that around 3pm on March 17, T.V.K, 12, was playing at the Lệ Mật communal house yard when he had a conflict with N.H.Đ. and was slapped.

T.V.K ran to call his older brother, T.V.M, to settle the dispute.

The two brothers walked to Lệ Mật communal house yard when they met their father, T.V.T, and recounted the incident. The father took his sons on a motorbike to Lệ Mật communal house yard to resolve the matter.

Upon arriving at the yard, the father instructed his sons to meet their grandfather, who was present there.

While he turned the bike around to leave, he saw his older son running and punched N.H.Đ, causing him to fall to the ground.

The father intervened and took his sons home. Later, T returned to the yard and noticed N.H.Đ showing signs of shock and pallor, so he took N.H.Đ to Đức Giang General Hospital for emergency treatment, then transferred him to Hospital 108 for further treatment.

The hospital diagnosed N.H.Đ with a brain concussion. He was in a coma with a high risk of death.
