Legal arguments delay trial over murder of Hong Kong socialite Abby Choi again
The murder trial of Hong Kong socialite Abby Choi Tin-fung has been delayed again while the court addresses legal issues raised by lawyers in the high-profile case.
Deputy High Court Judge Brian Keith told the nine-member jury on Friday that the hearing would resume on Monday, once the legal arguments had concluded.
Choi’s mother, Cheung Yin-fa, had been expected to face cross-examination by counsel for Choi’s ex-husband, Alex Kwong Kong-chi, on the fifth day of her testimony.
He is standing trial on a joint murder charge alongside his father, Kwong Kau, 68, and elder brother, Anthony Kwong Kong-kit, 35.
