John Fang welcomes order to reopen case of model whose headless body was found in his flat
The brother of former chief secretary Anson Chan Fang On-sang has welcomed a ruling requested by the justice secretary for an inquest into the death of model Annie Pang Chor-ying, whose headless skeleton was found in his flat.
Speaking for the first time since last month's ruling on the request on public-interest grounds, John Fang Meng-sang described the hearing as a chance to clear his name.
'It's a relief they will finally clear my name but at the same time it's a nuisance because none of the women in my family wants this business to be aired in public. But at least everything will be in the open,' Mr Fang told the Sunday Morning Post.
Pang's remains were found at a Yau Ma Tei flat owned by Mr Fang in 1999. Her head was discovered in a nearby rubbish bin, and a gold tooth and two digit bones were missing. She went missing in 1995, when she was 34.
No one has been arrested or charged in the case.
