The prosecution follows a conflict between Thuy and a 63-year-old woman from Hanoi. The dispute arose over selling space in Xuan Hoa market, where Thuy owns a seafood shop and the other woman sold vegetables directly opposite.
During the altercation, Thuy used a high-pressure car wash hose to spray the vegetable vendor's face. This action resulted in injuries to the victim's two eyes and right hand.
Following the incident, police issued a statement advising the public to resolve all conflicts calmly and lawfully. They emphasized that citizens must not use weapons, tools, or any dangerous equipment to settle disputes.
