Singer among 3 held as HK$7.7 million drugs seized from Hong Kong village house
Sources identify singer as Kris Law, who rose to fame in 2018 on ViuTV’s reality show “Good Night Show – King Maker”
Hong Kong police have arrested three people, including a local singer, after seizing drugs with a market value of HK$7.7 million (US$988,118) from a village house in Yuen Long on Saturday.
Sources identified the singer as Kris Law Kai-chung, 35, who made his debut in 2015 and rose to fame in 2018 on ViuTV’s reality show “Good Night Show – King Maker”.
During the show, Law competed with contestants who went on to become stars in the Cantopop band Mirror.
Senior Inspector Chow Ka-yun said on Sunday that the syndicate recruited young people as “martyrs” to traffic narcotics and used a village house to manufacture and store drugs.
Chow said police identified the syndicate’s mastermind and members by analysing the licence plates and models of suspicious vehicles, with the help of surveillance camera footage.
On Saturday, police launched an anti-drug operation and searched the village house, arresting two local men and a mainland woman on suspicion of trafficking, manufacturing, and conspiring to traffic dangerous drugs.
