The People’s Court of southern Tien Giang province on September 30 sentenced Quach Kim Hoa of Chinese nationality to death for “circulating counterfeit money”.

According to the court, Hoa plotted with Mai Van Truc and 35 others to bring counterfeit notes totalling VND4.7 billion from China into Vietnam for circulation.

The notes, in cotton and polymer and with face values of VND50,000, VND100,000, VND200,000 and VND500,000, were produced in Taiwan before being brought to Vietnam via China’s Guangxi province, confessed Hoa.

At the trial, the court sentenced Mai Van Truc to life imprisonment and Tran Van Trieu to 23 years in jail, with other accomplices receiving sentences ranging from 2-year suspended prison sentences to 19 years imprisonment.
