The High Court in Hong Kong is currently hearing testimony regarding the circumstances surrounding the death of socialite Abby Choi Tin-fung. According to prosecutors, her ex-husband, Alex Kwong Kong-chi, allegedly relied on Choi’s financial support to fund an affluent lifestyle while living in mainland China. The court was told that Kwong had been evading justice following a 2015 theft case involving HK$6.3 million.

Prosecutors further alleged that a vehicle borrowed by Kwong was utilized to transport equipment involved in the commission of the crime. The trial, which involves Alex Kwong and his father, Kwong Kau, seeks to establish the sequence of events and the financial dynamics between the victim and the accused. The defense has yet to present its full rebuttal to these specific claims regarding the use of digital wallets and the logistics of the incident. The proceedings are expected to continue as the court examines evidence related to the financial ties and the movements of the accused parties in the lead-up to the socialite's death.
