HANOI, VIETNAM – Vietnamese authorities have recommended the prosecution of several individuals, including Miss Grand International 2021 winner Nguyễn Thúc Thùy Tiên and YouTuber Quang Linh of the Quang Linh Vlogs channel. The recommendation also names other individuals allegedly connected to the operations of a major corporation.
Background of the Individuals
Nguyễn Thúc Thùy Tiên gained public recognition after winning the Miss Grand International 2021 pageant. Since then, she has participated in charity work and has been a brand ambassador for various companies.
Quang Linh Vlogs is a YouTube channel operated by Phạm Quang Linh. The channel, which has a large number of subscribers, features content about his life and agricultural projects in Angola, Africa.
The Investigation and Legal Status
According to reports, the investigating agency has concluded its initial inquiry and has passed a proposal to the public prosecutor's office to formally prosecute Thuy Tien, Quang Linh, and the others involved.
Their alleged connection to a corporation currently under investigation is the basis for the recommendation. The specific allegations against the individuals have not yet been publicly released. Officials have indicated that details are pending as the legal process continues.
A "recommendation for prosecution" is a procedural step and not a formal indictment. The prosecutor's office will now review the case file and evidence to decide whether to press official charges and proceed to trial.
Public Reaction and Potential Consequences
The news has generated significant public discussion, largely due to the high profiles of Thuy Tien and Quang Linh. This development could impact the careers and public standing of those named, potentially affecting their existing brand endorsements and professional agreements.
The case is ongoing, and further action now depends on the decision from the prosecutor's office, which will determine the next steps in this high-profile matter.
