A double body case occurred at Zhao Fung Court, 98 Tam Kung Road, Ma Tau Wai. At 9:23 pm today (9th), the police received a report from the owner of a unit in the building, saying that he had lost contact with a male and a female tenant for a period of time, so he came to visit. Unexpectedly, no one answered the door, and found a strange smell inside the unit, so he called the police for assistance.
Firemen brought blasting tools and broke into the unit. They found a man and a woman hanging in the house. Both were confirmed dead.
Police officers were present to investigate the cause of the incident.
Sources at the scene stated that the two deceased had a mother-child relationship. The female deceased was in her 60s and was found near the window in the room, while the male deceased was in her 40s and was found in the living room.
