The woman who allegedly tried to behead her tycoon lover before leaping off a luxury Kowloon West apartment block on Sunday had probably planned the murder-suicide, her business partner has revealed.
Identification of the bodies of Wong Suk-kan, 47, and her long-time lover, "King of Fruits" Peng Chi-hui, 49, would be conducted today, the police said yesterday.
Wong, a businesswoman, is believed to have sedated Peng, a Nanhai district member of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference in Foshan, with sleeping pills prescribed to her just two weeks ago, before killing him in their HK$150 million flat over his affair with another woman.
"My staff told me that after Wong learned Peng had a mistress about two months ago, she could not sleep or eat," said Teddy Hung Hon-yee, a shareholder of Tak Shing Electric Current Therapy Centre. Wong was franchised to run a branch of the company in Sheung Wan.
