A fresh update has emerged in the death case of Hong Kong socialite Abby Choi more than three and a half years after she was allegedly killed and parts of her dismembered body were discovered at a house. The former husband and in-laws of Choi, who was 28 years old at the time of her death, went on trial on Monday (September 21, 2026) in connection with her murder, which sent shockwaves across Hong Kong.
Choi's ex-husband Alex Kwong, his father Kwong Kau, and his brother Anthony Kwong were accused of killing Choi in February 2023, according to news agency AP. If convicted of murder, they will face life imprisonment. They were also charged with preventing the lawful burial of a body. Choi’s Instagram showed that the socialite lived a glamorous life, regularly sharing photos from fashion shows and photo shoots. Days before she was allegedly killed, Choi posted about attending a Dior show at Paris Fashion Week.
