According to a report, DNA tests have established that the butchered fashion model Abby Choi was the owner of the human legs discovered inside a refrigerator and the skull retrieved from a cooking pot in a home in Hong Kong.
An individual with knowledge of the situation told the South China Morning Post that the glitzy 28-year-old influencer’s dismembered body parts were found in a home in the village of Lung Mei Tsuen that was rented by Choi’s former father-in-law.
The married mother of four was killed in a fatal attack last month that left a large hole in the back of her skull, according to officials. It is believed that there was a dispute over money at the time of the attack.
More than 100 police officers combed through a landfill in search of Choi’s torso and hands, but they were unable to find them.
The shocking information comes as a 29-year-old woman, who has not been named, has been detained in connection with the brutal killing and dismemberment of Choi.
Tuesday, Hong Kong police revealed that the most recent suspect had been detained in mainland China. Before escaping, they claimed the woman had assisted an accomplice.
Following the discovery of human body parts in Kwong Kau’s recently rented home, Choi’s ex-husband, Alex Kwong, his father, Kwong Kau, and his brother, Anthony Kwong, were all charged with murder last week.
The refrigerator contained a pair of female legs, and the skull was pulled from a cooking pot. Another cooking pot had what appeared to be flesh in it.
According to Police Superintendent Alan Chung, one of the containers contained green radishes, carrots, and meat that was likely human flesh and was swimming in a liquid that was covered in a layer of fat.
According to reports, a human head that had been reduced to its skull was in the other pot.
Along with Choi’s handbag, other items from the crime scene included an electric saw, meat slicer, hammer, face shields, and raincoats.
Jenny Li, the mother of Alex Kwong, is charged with one count of perverting the course of justice. Until a hearing in May, all four family members were instructed to remain in custody without bond.
Two additional people, including a 41-year-old man, were also detained by the police on suspicion of concealing criminals.
According to a later police report, Choi vanished on February 21. Choi had gained more than 100,000 Instagram followers and had been featured in Harper’s Bazaar and Vogue.
According to earlier police statements, she had tens of millions of dollars in financial disagreements with her ex-husband and his family, and “some people” were not pleased with the way Choi managed her finances.
The model shared the cover photo for the opulent fashion magazine L’Officiel Monaco less than a week before her horrifying demise, writing in the caption, “my journey as a style icon continues.”
According to investigators, Choi’s unemployed ex-husband and his family murdered her over a multimillion dollar property in the fabled Ho Man Tin neighbourhood of Kadoorie Hill.
Choi’s former father-in-law was displeased that the model planned to sell the house that she had purchased in his name, according to a previous South China Morning Post report that cited a police source.
Choi’s ex-brother-in-law was supposed to drive her to pick up her daughter from school on the day of her disappearance. However, according to police, the man instead knocked her out before bringing her to the rental house where she was butchered.
In order to protect themselves from spitting blood, the perpetrators allegedly covered the area with fabric, dressed in raincoats, and put on face shields.
After Choi failed to return home, her second husband reported her missing. Three days later, her dismembered remains were discovered.
The fashionista was a mother of four kids, who were between the ages of 3 and 10.
Her second husband, Tam Chuk Kwan, was named in the local press as the father of Choi’s two youngest children. Her first husband, who is currently accused of murder, is the father of Choi’s two oldest children.
In China and Hong Kong, Tam’s family runs a prosperous chain of noodle restaurants.
Hong Kong was shocked by Choi’s brutal murder because violent crime is not common there.
