A shocking case in Long Xuyen, where a couple was found dead by their son inside a locked house.
On August 11, the Long Xuyen Ward Police in An Giang Province reported a homicide case at a private residence. The victims, a married couple, were found dead inside their locked house.
The Long Xuyen Ward Police stated that the victims were Mr. D.V.P. (63 years old) and his wife, Mrs. L.T.T. (63 years old), residing on Le Minh Nguon Street in Long Xuyen Ward, An Giang Province. The couple worked as scrap metal traders and lived with a mentally ill relative. They had one child who lived separately.
On the same morning, their 29-year-old son noticed his parents were not at the market as usual and went to check their house. Upon entering, he discovered his parents dead inside. He immediately reported the incident to the police.
Shortly after receiving the report, the Long Xuyen Ward Police arrived and cordoned off the crime scene.
Investigators found Mr. P. with a stomach wound and significant blood loss, while his wife had a cut on her right hand with bloodstains around her.
Preliminary findings suggest no signs of external interference, with only the two deceased individuals present inside the house.
According to family members, Mrs. T. had recently been jealous of her husband, suspecting him of having an affair, which led to frequent arguments between the couple.
“Currently, we are coordinating with the An Giang Provincial Police to examine the scene and conduct autopsies,” a Long Xuyen Ward Police official said.
In an unrelated incident, three young men in Ba Ria – Vung Tau attacked and killed a karaoke customer out of unwarranted jealousy, despite having no prior conflict with the victim.
