Long An province’s police have finalized their investigation over the case of Dao Thi Ngung, who was accused of murder and robbery.
According to Long An police, from 2008-2009 Ngung poisoned nearly 20 people at many pagodas in southern provinces of HCM City, Binh Duong, Long An, Ben Tre, An Giang, Tien Giang, etc. to steal their money and jewelry. Two people died.
Ngung declared that she disguised herself as a begging woman and a benighted traveler to shelter at pagodas, where she made the acquaintance with Buddhists. She invited them a glass of water, with poison, and robbed their assets once they fainted.
The woman was arrested in October 2009 by Long An police after causing dozens of poisoning and robbery cases in many southern and central provinces.
Two victims died and the remaining suffered from serious injuries.
Police said Ngung used poison which is the mixture of pesticide, anaesthetic and many kinds of drugs.
