Truong My Lan, 67, will face death by lethal injection after a panel of three jurors and two judges rejected all defence arguments and found her guilty of swindling cash from Saigon Commercial Bank (SCB) over a decade. The chair of major developer Van Thinh Phat was accused of fraud amounting to $12.5 billion (£10 billion) - nearly 3 per cent of the country's 2022 GDP. She illegally controlled the SCB between 2012 to 2022 to siphon of these funds through thousands of ghost companies and by paying bribes to government officials. 'The defendant's actions… eroded people's trust in the leadership of the (Communist) Party and state,' read the verdict at the trial in southern business hub Ho Chi Minh City. Lan denied the charges and blamed her subordinates.
