New Delhi: The missing head of a model in Hong Kong model was found in a soup pot, as reported by New York Post. The model was identified as Abby Choi. She went missing on Tuesday. According to NY Post, the police have charged four people for her gruesome killing. Hong Kong police said Choi’s decapitated head had been boiled until only the skull remained, the Times of London reported.
According to broadcaster TVB, the ex-husband of the Alex Kwong model was charged with murder on Sunday along with his brother and father. Her former mother-in-law was charged with obstruction in the case. All the four accused were denied bail. The family members charged for the killing will return to court on May 8.
Choi recently appeared on the digital cover of L’Officiel Monaco fashion magazine, three days after which she went missing. According to NY Post, police found two female legs in a refrigerator and two cooking pots containing human tissues. The police continued searching nearby sewers for body parts of the fashion star. The police found a meat slicer and an electric saw at the scene.
Calling the murder “premeditated” and “well planned”, the police said that they believe the accused men carried out the murder because Choi was going to sell a luxury property in the Kadoorie Hill neighborhood in Ho Man Tin, NY Post reported. Choi had bought the property but registered the land under the name of her former father-in-law to save stamp duty.
The family of model’s ex-husband has been living on the property. According to the police authorities Choi’s former brother-in-law offered to take her to pick up her daughter from school, but instead he knocked her out of the vehicle and brought her to the Tai Po flat, NY Post reported.
According to the autopsy report, Choi suffered a large hole in her skull behind her right ear, which may have been caused by a hard object, NY Post reported.
“When we found the two pots of soup at the scene, one of the pots measuring 50cm [20 inches] deep and 40cm [16 inches] in diameter, was almost full and covered with thick fat, some green radishes and carrots and meat believed to be human flesh,” Police Superintendent Alan Chung said, as quoted by NY Post. Local authorities have not found model’s torso and arms and fear they might have been thrown away.
The suspects covered the walls of the flat with a sail, and they put on face shields and raincoats so that they would not get bloodstained by dismembering the body,” said Chung, as quoted by NY Post.
