4 suspects refused to reveal location of Abby Choi’s remains, police have to search landfill
The Hong Kong police are still working hard to find the remaining parts of Abby Choi, who was murdered and dismembered by her ex-husband’s family.
As of the moment, the tragic murder of Abby Choi is still making headlines, with netizens all across Asia paying close attention to every detail regarding the case, especially when Abby Choi’s remains still have not been found in full.
So far, 4 suspects in the case have been trialed, including Kwong Kau (65 years old, former police officer and ex father-in-law of Abby Choi), Anthony Kwong (31 years old, Abby Choi’s chauffeur and ex brother-in-law), Alex Kwong (28 years old, unemployed, Abby Choi’s former husband), and Jenny Li (63 years old, retired, Abby Choi’s ex mother-in-law). All of them made their first court appearance on February 27th, but the hearing has been adjourned to May 8th due to lack of evidence.
According to the police, Abby Choi’s former in-laws refused to tell the location where they disposed of the model’s body parts, making it hard for investigation.
As of February 28th (Hong Kong time), the police are still looking for Abby Choi’s remaining body parts, including her arms and torso. Over 100 officers from various police departments have been gathered in a landfill in Ta Kwu Ling for investigation and searching.
The police proceeded with the investigation after examining the nearby camera records. The clip was recorded on February 22nd, one day after the model was announced missing. The content of the video showed a suspect moving unidentified bags from the apartment where the body parts were found to the nearby landfill. The compiled trash has been transferred to the North East New Territories Landfill in Ta Kwu Ling.
The landfill where the police found the body parts of the victim is the size of a football court with a depth of 3 to 5 meters and has the capacity to hold tons of trash. At the same time of the search of the deceased’s remains, the police is also actively seeking for additional evidence. “They may be some human body parts or they could be the clothes and the phone of the victim, or even the weapons,” Police Superintendent Chung Ya Lun said. The investigation can take up to 2 to 3 days due to the size of the searched area.
Moreover, the police have reportedly contacted the authority to narrow down the area of searching at the crime scene. While there are discovered bones, it is not sure if it was human’s or animal’s bones. Workers will move the trash to another vacant lot and hand the area over to the police force to look for evidence. The officers are also making use of the cameras at the scenes to keep an eye on the situation.
