Long Tong's arrest at Noi Bai Airport after years of evading an arrest warrant has attracted attention.

Vang Van Anh, who used the alias "Long Tong" on TikTok, was arrested at Noi Bai Airport after nearly four years on the run from a warrant related to a legal case. Anh is currently being detained for investigation.

The case involving TikToker "Long Tổng" – real name Vàng Văn Ánh, 32 years old, residing in Gia Phú commune, Lào Cai province – is attracting significant public attention after his arrest at Nội Bài International Airport. Ánh was the subject of an arrest warrant issued by the Lào Cai Provincial Police Investigation Agency since January 2022 in connection with a case involving a group of crimes strictly prohibited by law.

According to information from the Lao Cai Provincial Police, at approximately 11:30 PM on December 16th, law enforcement officers, in coordination with the Criminal Investigation Department of the Ministry of Public Security and other professional units, arrested Anh at Noi Bai Airport. At the time of his arrest, authorities seized several personal documents and devices belonging to Anh for investigation purposes. He has been placed under temporary criminal detention in accordance with regulations.

What makes the case noteworthy is that while on the run, Anh did not remain anonymous but operated openly on social media. Under the alias "Long Tong," he frequently posted videos showcasing his luxurious lifestyle, appearing in many foreign locations and attracting a large following. Anh's TikTok account has over 116,000 followers, with many videos reaching millions of views.

Besides showcasing his personal image, Anh also posted content inviting people to collaborate or work abroad. These videos sparked debate on social media, particularly with many questioning the transparency of the offers. After the announcement that Anh was wanted, public attention intensified regarding his ability to operate openly on social media platforms for an extended period.

Many believe that the ostentatious display of images may have made Ánh more easily detected. Some expressed concern about many social media accounts using glamorous images to attract viewers, thereby creating false perceptions of true value. However, there is also the view that all assessments should be based on official information from authorities, avoiding speculation while the case is still under investigation.

From a legal perspective, experts say that the illegal acts related to Anh's case all fall under the category of crimes subject to severe penalties under the Criminal Code. The fact that she evaded arrest for a long period does not diminish her legal responsibility; in fact, it may even lead to harsher penalties. Authorities also advise the public to be wary of offers to work abroad from accounts with unclear information, and to avoid being drawn into illegal activities.

The case of "Long Tổng" once again highlights the need to verify information on social media. No matter how glamorous an online image may be, any violation of the law will be dealt with according to regulations when the authorities get involved.
