Police are offering a $400,000 reward for information leading to the capture of a Filipino worker suspected in the brutal killing of his employers  at their Sha Tin home four months ago.

The reward is effective until February 24,  according to a case investigator. 'We want to get as much information as possible so that we can arrest the culprit as soon as possible,' the officer said.

Magno Cruz Manalili, 33, is about 190cm tall, of strong build and with short black hair.

Manalili left Hong Kong for the Philippines two days before the bodies of Ng Ka-mong and his wife, Sun King-man - both teachers aged 54 - were discovered inside the closet of the master bedroom in their single-storey house in Pai Tau Tsuen, Sha Tin, on April 15.

The couple had multiple stab wounds to their chests.

Police have estimated that the couple were killed between April 12 and 13.

The reward was posted after police asked Interpol to launch a worldwide hunt for Manalili and sought help from Philippine authorities to track him down.

Manalili is the holder of Hong Kong identity card NoW407669(1) and a Philippine passport NoFF605153.

He had worked for the victims for more than two years and was reported to have been heavily in debt.

According to the police notice, the house was cleaned after the killings and there was no sign of a struggle,  burglary or trespass.

The couple's wallets, containing their identity cards, bank cards and some cash, were missing.

The murders were discovered after the couple's two sons, who are studying in the United States, contacted their uncle in Hong Kong when they were unable to reach their parents.

The uncle went to the house and called police on April 15 when no one answered the door.

Sun, a part-time Chinese history teacher at St Paul's Secondary School in Happy Valley, was the daughter of Sun Kuo-tong, former dean of Chinese University's arts faculty. Her husband taught at Pope Paul VI College in Kwai Chung.

Meanwhile, police are offering a $300,000 reward for information leading to the capture of the killer of businessman Man Kam-po, 41, who was shot dead in  his Man Kee car park office in Lok Ma Chau on June 16. The sketch of the  suspect and the scooter he rode  are also shown in the wanted notice.

The gunman drove into the car park on a grey scooter, walked into the office  and fired twice at Man's head at point-blank range. Police believe it could have been a professional hit.

The killer was wearing a red long-sleeved shirt, blue jeans and a dark full-face helmet.
