When he arrived in the police station, he was brought to a close room. Later, one police officer in uniform and the two persons in plainclothes entered the room and started to interrogate him about a recent burglary in his Quang Chau commune.
Firstly, they confiscated his cell phone and when Manh said he did not know anything about the burglary of some worship things, the trio beat him. They hang his hands to a window bars and used electrical baton to attack him in his penis, the victim said to reporters.
The trio also used an equipment to clip his fingers in a bid to force him to confess.
Manh was beaten and questioned by three people until 3 PM. After that, they returned his cell phone and released him.
Returning home, he felt pains in his head and swollen face. He was brought to the Hung Ha General Hospital for checking.
Manh filled his petition to denounce the police officers of conducting coerced torture. Five days later, he was invited to the Hung Yen city police where police officer Phan Quang Manh, head of the Investigation team on social orders apologized for the incident.

The Hung Yen city police refused to work with reporters of Cong Ly newspaper on the case while Colonel Do Dinh Hao, head of the Hung Yen province’s Police department pledged to investigate the case and “take proper measures.”
Torture is systemic in Vietnam although the country ratified the UN Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment in 2014.
Hundreds of people have been killed or severely injured in police stations and detention facilities in recent years.
Few of perpetrators have been disciplined for their torture acts.
