HONG KONG: A 15-year-old girl who was killed after refusing to put on a costume for a photo shoot in Hong Kong had straps wound so tightly around her neck that the plastic embedded into her skin, a forensic pathologist told a Hong Kong High Court on Tuesday (Jan 2).
During the murder trial, Dr Foo Ka-chung said that the plastic was one of the causes that had led to the death of the teenager from mechanical asphyxia, the South China Morning Post (SCMP) reported.
The newspaper previously reported that the girl had met the suspect, Lau Cheung-fai, at the Langham Place shopping centre in Mongkok in December 2014, before going to his flat nearby.
