When an anti-communist journalist was found dead in Hong Kong, a political act was suspected at first
- Many suspected a political motive when Chan Kang-nan, a prominent anti-communist and opponent of Taiwan independence, was found beaten to death
- However, it turned out Chan had had an affair with the wife of a primary-school teacher, who killed him with a brick and a metal pipe in a jealous rage
