Ho Chi Minh City court sentences man to death for murdering, robbing co-worker

A man has been given capital punishment for robbing and murdering his co-worker in Ho Chi Minh City in 2018. The municipal People’s Court on Wednesday sentenced Nguyen Hoang Phi, 24, who hails from the southern province of Binh Phuoc, to death for murder and robbery. His accomplices, Nguyen Dien Tai and Tran Van Tu, both 21, each received an 18-year jail term for murder and robbery. Tai and Tu were under 18 years old when they committed the offenses. The fourth defendant, 19-year-old Vuong Minh Tuan, was condemned to one year and a half in prison for robbery but he was given a suspended sentence. Tuan was under 16 years old when he committed the violation. According to the indictment, Phi was an employee of a local security guard service company. He was dispatched to Ngoc Chau Company along with Bui Van Dat and some other people from April 1, 2018. On the evening of October 5 the same year, Phi and Dat were on duty during the same shift. Phi then planned on robbing his co-worker and contacted Tai and Tu for their assistance. The man waited until Dat went out for some errands and let his accomplices enter the place. At around 9:30 pm that night, Dat was patrolling the venue when he was attacked and tied up by Tai and Tu. The two also took the victim’s phone and VND1.5 million (US$65), while Phi was in charge of keeping watch. As Dat screamed for help, Phi arrived and told the other two robbers to kill the victim to prevent him from reporting the case to police. Despite Dat begging for mercy, the three strangled him to death with an electric wire. They took Dat’s body to outlying Binh Chanh District and buried it at an empty land plot. On November 15, 2018, Phi and Tuan stole Tai’s motorbike and sold it to Cambodia for some cash. In the following month, Tai’s father discovered that Tuan was involved in the motorbike theft and took him to the local police station. Tuan admitted his wrongdoing to officers, but went on to accuse Phi, …

Japan’s JCR Pharma to build new plant to produce COVID-19 vaccine solution

TOKYO -- JCR Pharmaceuticals Co said on Thursday it would build a new plant in Japan to expand production of ingredients for COVID-19 vaccines over the longer term. JCR Pharma along with Daiichi Sankyo Co and other Japanese partners are cooperating to produce and distribute the COVID-19 vaccine developed by AstraZeneca Plc and Oxford University. The Japanese government has arranged to buy 120 million doses of the vaccine, which was submitted to domestic regulators for approval on Feb. 5. JCR Pharma said in a statement that it has been making bulk substances for the vaccine at an existing plant but will build another one to comply with government requirements. The Japanese drugmaker signed a contract in December to make substances for the AstraZeneca vaccine. But as a condition for a government grant to reinforce the country’s vaccine production capability through 2030, it needed to build another facility. JCR said it will spend about 11.6 billion yen ($108.28 million) to build the facility in Kobe City, western Japan, with construction due to start in July and finish by October 2022. The AstraZeneca vaccine is a critical component in Japan’s inoculation plan, as the doses will be made mostly in the country, and don’t need to be stored at the ultra-cold temperatures required for Pfizer Inc’s COVID-19 vaccine. Japan kicked off its COVID-19 inoculation campaign in the middle of February using Pfizer’s vaccine, the first to be approved by Japanese regulators. But the Pfizer doses have been imported from European factories and are in short supply. Local media has reported that Moderna Inc will file for approval of its vaccine as early as Friday via its Japanese partner Takeda Pharmaceutical Co. …
