There was no 'staged kidnapping of students' in front of the school gate.

Cua Viet Town Police (Gio Linh District, Quang Tri ) have just verified and confirmed that there was no 'staged kidnapping of students' in front of the gate of Gio Viet Primary and Secondary School.

On the afternoon of February 10, information from Cua Viet Town Police (Gio Linh District, Quang Tri) confirmed that there was no staged kidnapping of students in front of the gate of Gio Viet Primary and Secondary School as shared by some social media pages.

Previously, information about a "staged kidnapping of students" in front of the gate of Gio Viet Primary and Secondary School was spread on social media. However, the information posted was due to misunderstandings from students and parents.

Gio Viet Primary and Secondary School

Mr. Vo Quoc Hung, Vice Principal of Gio Viet Primary and Secondary School, said information about the kidnapping of students in front of the school gate appeared on the evening of February 9 from a social media account named NTT.

"This personal page posted information on February 7 that after school, a student of the school waited for his mother to pick him up in front of the school gate. At this time, the student met a masked man driving a car but did not have any impact on him. After returning home, perhaps the student was cautious so he told his mother that someone had kidnapped him," said Mr. Hung.

After hearing the child's story, the parent called and told a relative living abroad, who then posted a warning.

Through working with the Cua Viet Town Police, the student said that he made a mistake because he was more vigilant after his mother told him about the incident of a stranger coming to pick up a student in Quang Tri Town on February 5.

Currently, the information about the incident has been verified by the Cua Viet Town Police, the information has been denied and the people have been notified to avoid causing panic. At the same time, it is recommended that all people verify the content clearly before sharing information on social networks, to avoid posting false information.
