A court in Ho Chi Minh City on Tuesday gave a local man capital punishment for stabbing a female bus attendant, whom he had had affections for, to death last year.
Nguyen Van Guong, 58, residing in the city’s Cu Chi District, had developed feelings for L.T.M.T., a female attendant on a bus route between Cu Chi Bus Station and An Nhon Tay Bus Station in the same district, according to court documents.
In late 2019, Guong started suspecting T. had a romantic relationship with N.V.D., the bus driver who was T.’s only other co-worker, and regularly traveled on D.and T.’s bus to spy on the pair.
