A FORMER nurse told yesterday how her 'violent and crazy' lover forced her to take part in a bizarre revenge attack on his ex-girlfriend.
Wu Pui-kwan, 46, said she went along with Lau Kin-hung's plans because she feared for her life after he beat her up and threatened to kill her.
The couple allegedly kidnapped Lau's former girlfriend Chow Sau-ling, 24, after pouncing on her in a lift and knocking her out with chloroform.
Defence counsel Thomas Iu told the High Court jury Wu was completely under the influence of Lau, 38, who had crushed her will with his repeated violence.
Wu, who worked as a nurse in China during the Cultural Revolution, admitted she had obtained the chloroform from old student friends during a trip to the mainland.
But she claimed Lau, who has a previous conviction for violence, told her he wanted it to make a solvent to repair his stereo.
The former nurse also described how Lau took her on numerous trips to Ms Chow's Yuen Long flat in the weeks before the attack.
