Hoang Quynh Vinh, a 36-year-old from Dong Phu District, was given lethal injection, the provincial judgement enforcement agency announced on Saturday morning.
Vinh received the death penalty for “murder,” “intentionally causing injury to other people” and “escaping from detention.”
According to Vinh’s criminal record, while attending a drinking party at an acquaintance’s house in Dong Phu District’s Dong Tien Commune on March 15, 2015, he offered Hoang Van Binh, 45, living in the same commune, a drink but Binh refused.
