HK man pleads not guilty to murdering ex-girlfriend, 23, Gucci shoeprints at scene matched his
The trial continues.
Alex Lo Chun Ming has pleaded not guilty to the murder of his ex-girlfriend, Aqua Chow. The victim's body was discovered in a bathtub at The Ritz-Carlton hotel in Hong Kong in early 2022. According to prosecutors, Lo took Chow to the hotel after meeting her at her home on June 29, 2022. On the same day, Chow's messages on Telegram were noticed by a friend, who observed her communicating with someone named Alex Lo.
Chow was scheduled to attend a yoga course in the United States that day, but never arrived at the airport. Her mother reported her missing on June 30. Police found bloodstains in the hotel room, and Chow was discovered lying face down in the partially filled bathtub, with visible injuries on her body. Forensic evidence revealed over 40 knife wounds, predominantly on her face, neck, torso, and limbs.
The prosecution claims that the Gucci shoes found at the scene were Lo's own, and that her cause of death was severe blood loss from the multiple injuries.
