The police have also arrested five related others; Ngo Duy Chinh, director of BIDV’s Thang Long branch; Nguyen Xuan Giap, deputy director of Ha Thanh branch along with Pham Hong Quang and Nguyen Thanh Nam also from Ha Thanh branch. These four have also been accused of the same violations with Sang.
