A woman in Dong Nai has complained that she was the victims of violent actions taken by a bus inspector who was the same age as her children.
Tran Thi Hanh, 46, a resident of the province’s Bien Hoa city, told the newspaper what happened to her five days ago.
At 5 pm on December 8, Hanh got on the bus with number plate 60V-9722 and got a ticket from a male inspector to whom she paid VND4,000.
After the bus drove for a bit, the inspector came over to her and asked, “Did you buy a ticket?” Hanh replied that she had bought one from him.
A moment later, he came back to Hanh and asked, “Where is your ticket?” Hanh, who was holding the handrail with both her hands, replied: “It’s in my hand. You can check it if you want.”
But the inspector suddenly pushed her down to the floor.
Hanh, who got angry at his violent behavior, said, “I am the age of your mother. How dare you treat me like that! I should slap you on the mouth for your act.”
As soon as Hanh finished her words, the inspector rushed to her and beat her viciously until she was about to pass out.
He then forced Hanh to get off the bus, but Hanh did not follow his order.
When the bus came to its station at the Vung Tau three-way crossroad, Hanh reported the incident to the station’s manager, but the inspector had run away.
Hanh later went to the Dong Nai General Hospital for examination, and doctors confirmed that she had suffered multiple injuries.
The provincial Center for Operation and Management of Public Passenger Transportation said the bus is operated by the Sonadezi Transport Joint Stock Company, and that the inspector that day was Tran Minh Phung.
The center said it has requested that the company investigate the case and submit a report thereafter to form a basis for resolution.
