2020/02/22

Vietnam’s leading opera singer Vu Manh Dung was stabbed. Dung is 42, and police have arrested Dương Quang Bình, an older brother of Dung’s wife.

Dung is a baritone singer who has been awarded the title of “Excellent Artist” by the state. He was deputy director of the National Opera and Ballet Theatre, and in 2015 played the emperor in the opera “Bamboo Princess” composed by Ryusuke Numajiri at the Hanoi Civic Theater.

According to local reports, the incident occurred on the night of the 18th, at the site of Mrs. and Mrs. Dung next to Bình. The culprit, Bình, was a drug addict and had been argued in his family many times before.

Bình raised a withdrawal symptom, entered Dung’s house, locked himself from the inside, and lit his motorcycle. When police arrived at the Dung’s house, Bình was reportedly stabbed Dung with a knife in an attempt to escape.
