The dismembered remains of an elderly couple who vanished a fortnight ago were found in a flat in Tai Kok Tsui, Kowloon, yesterday after police arrested their youngest son and a friend.
Their heads were found in the refrigerator and police recovered parts of three arms and four legs from the flat.
But officers were still looking for the torsos of the couple, Chau Wing-ki, 64, and his wife, Siu Yuet-yee, 63.
The horrific discovery came to light after officers picked up their 29-year-old son at the family's flat in Western about 7am.
Everything could be evidence ... We have to check everything … carefully
They then arrested the second suspect, a 35-year-old man, in the second-floor flat of Hoi Hing Building in Kok Cheung Street, Tai Kok Tsui, about 10.30am.
Inside the bloodstained flat, police seized several plastic bags and moisture-proof plastic boxes that contained body parts. They also found a chopping board, saws and knives. "Everything could be evidence," a police source said. "We have to check everything … carefully."
