HÀ GIANG — Hà Giang Police have completed their investigations and proposed the provincial People’s Court begin legal proceedings against five suspects related to a national high school exam cheating scandal.
The information was released on Monday by Colonel Lê Văn Canh, spokesman of the Hà Giang Police.
The five suspects will be prosecuted for abusing their position and power while on duty.
