The trial of Abby Choi's former in-laws has revealed new details about the alleged murder plot. Evidence presented in court suggests that Choi's ex-father-in-law, Kwong Kau, rented a village flat under false pretenses, claiming it was for his retirement. During this time, he reportedly purchased a meat mincer and saws, which prosecutors allege were intended for the disposal of Choi's body. Choi's ex-husband, Alex Kwong Kong-chi, and his elder brother, Anthony Kwong Kong-kit, are also on trial for her murder, while Kwong Kau faces an additional charge of preventing the burial of her body.
