The men smashed Ms Myers’ jaw and inflicted about 500 cuts on her body. Mr McBride suffered more than 100 injuries and was strangled. The other four men stood trial and were found guilty of murder. Pang, Tam and Chiu were sentenced to death, but their sentences were later reduced to life imprisonment. Cheung, who was also underage, was also detained at her majesty’s pleasure, and freed in 2007.Three Hong Kong men kidnapped nightclub hostess Fan Man-yee, reportedly over a debt dispute. They tortured her in a flat in Tsim Sha Tsui for a month by beating her with steel bars and pouring hot plastic on her limbs.
They were sentenced to life in jail. However, Leung Shing-cho successfully appealed his conviction, and was later sentenced to 18 years in jail following a re-trial. He was released from prison in 2011 but went back into jail in August 2022 for indecently assaulting a 10-year-old girl.Pianist Henry Chau Hoi-Leung invited his parents to his flat for a meal. Little did Mr Chau Wing-ki, 65, and Ms Siu Yuet-yee, 63, have any idea of what was in store for them.
Chau told psychiatrists that he wanted to achieve something important before he was 30. He then planned to commit suicide as he felt he would fail to do so. Chau also alleged that after he told Tse his plan in September 2012, Tse inspired him to think of killing his parents instead.Tse was acquitted of the murder charges, though he admitted he had unlawfully dealt with the couple’s bodies. The judge sentenced him to one year in jail, as his role was a comparatively minor one.
Khaw was sentenced to life imprisonment in 2015. In 2022, Khaw, who was 57, appealed against his sentence but was rejected by the Court of Appeal.A well-liked professor who was trapped in a marriage that had soured, murdered his wife and stuffed her body into a suitcase.
