(PLO)- In addition to the irreparable loss and pain of the child’s parents, there is also a loss of trust when the public has to listen to answers with inconsistent content from the authorities.
The traffic accident in Ninh Thuan has not had the final investigation results, but the loss is obvious. In addition to the loss and irreparable pain of the child’s parents, there is also the loss of trust when the public has to listen to the response with inconsistent content from the authorities.
1. Inconsistency in alcohol content assessment
On August 1, responding to the press, the leader of the Department of Health (based on the report of the provincial hospital and its function) said that the blood alcohol concentration of the victim was normal, below the threshold set by the Ministry of Health. economic. However, he did not say that even though it is below a certain threshold set by the Ministry of Health, it is far beyond the provisions of Decree 100/2019 on handling of administrative violations when participating in road traffic.

On August 2, in the morning, the leader of the hospital admitted that the above results were unreliable and that the person at fault was the testing technician (KTV) when providing incorrect results, should have consulted. superior. However, he did not explain whether the auditor has the right to provide test results (in this case, forensic documents at the request of the investigative agency). Normally, a test like that, in addition to the signature of the KTV, must also be signed by the head of the administrative department on behalf of the director, at least there must be the BV’s hanging stamp.
In the afternoon of the same day, at a press conference held by the Provincial Police and the Department of Information and Communications with the participation of the Propaganda Department, Department of Health, Provincial Hospital, a press release said: When performing a blood alcohol test , KTV did not follow the regulations, did not perform the test sample run phase before running the patient’s serum sample.
Besides, when noticing that the patient’s blood alcohol test results were abnormal, the KTV did not review and return the test results in accordance with regulations. Therefore, the alcohol test results of the patient Ho Hoang Anh have not been verified, are not reliable, and are not suitable for the patient’s condition.
2. Doubts from the scene and social networks
First: As soon as the incident happened, the victim’s relatives said they approached the scene but there was no trace. Explaining this, a source said that because the driver used his car to take the victim to the hospital, he could not keep the scene.
Second: Fortunately, on social networks (MXH) appeared a clip collected by the victim’s family. It clearly shows that right after the collision, the victim was thrown out and hit the lamp post, the Ford Everest turned right and did not turn on the turn signal. In the car, the driver got off the phone while walking. This detail can lead to a logical assumption that the driver is driving the car while answering the phone, not observing the rearview mirror when decelerating and turning right and not turning on the right turn signal.
Third: Immediately after the accident, on MXH appeared an information of unknown origin that the driver of the car in the accident was someone else. This caused a stir in the local forums in Ninh Thuan and spread very quickly that there was a conspiracy to evade.
Thus, amid so many doubts about the scene; error factors; Fake news on MXH about the driver of the car is another person… the authorities did not consider this as public opinion that needs to be explained in a timely manner. Only a few days later, when the press entered, new information was provided in a trickle and inconsistent manner. That leads to more and more doubts of public opinion, it causes a communication crisis in the press and social networks, making the explanation even more difficult to convince.
Once the information is not transparent and timely, the pressure will be on everyone. The victim’s family constantly had to reiterate the pain of the wound that had not yet closed; the prosecuting agency and the participants in the proceedings in this case will continue to be under pressure.
