  Speaker 1: On April fourteenth, nineteen ninety nine. The tragic demise of
• 0:04
  Hong Kong night club hostess Fan Man Yi occurred after
• 0:08
  enduring a month of severe torture, culminating in her killers
• 0:13
  placing her head inside a Hello Kitty stuffed toy. The
• 0:17
  Hello Kitty murder case is still recognized as one of
• 0:20
  the most horrifyingly brutal incidents in contemporary history. On March seventeenth,
• 0:27
  nineteen ninety nine, Chan Man Locke, a member of the
• 0:31
  Hong Kong Triad, along with his accomplices, abducted twenty three
• 0:36
  year old Fan Man Ye from her residence and subjected
• 0:39
  her to prolonged torture within an apartment located in the
• 0:43
  Siemshat Sui area, leading to her death on April fourteenth.
• 0:49
  The public might have remained unaware of this atrocity had
• 0:52
  it not been for a haunting visit to a Hong
• 0:55
  Kong police station by a young girl. In May nineteen
• 0:59
  ninety nine, a fourteen year old girl approached the police
• 1:03
  claiming that she had been tormented for weeks by the
• 1:07
  spirit of a woman who had been bound with electrical
• 1:10
  wires and brutally killed. Initially, the officers dismissed her assertions
• 1:16
  as mere fantasies or typical adolescent exaggerations. However, their curiosity
• 1:22
  was aroused when she revealed that the ghost belonged to
• 1:26
  a woman she had participated in murdering. Following the girl
• 1:30
  to a dilapidated flat in Cowloon, the police uncovered the
• 1:34
  grim reality behind her nightmares. Inside the apartment, they discovered
• 1:41
  a large Hello Kitty doll containing the decapitated skull of
• 1:45
  a woman. This case became infamously known as the Hello
• 1:50
  Kitty murder and is regarded in Hong Kong as one
• 1:54
  of the most heinous crimes in recent memory. This narrative
• 1:58
  recounts the chilling detail of the Hello Kitty murder case.
• 2:03
  Who was Fan Man Yi the victim in the Hello
• 2:06
  Kitty murder case? The life of Fan man Yee was
• 2:10
  marked by tragedy long before her decapitation and the subsequent
• 2:14
  concealment of her head within a doll. Abandoned by her
• 2:18
  family during childhood, she grew up in a girl's home.
• 2:23
  By her teenage years, she had succumbed to drug addiction
• 2:27
  and resorted to prostitution to finance her dependency. At the
• 2:32
  age of twenty three, she managed to secure employment as
• 2:36
  a hostess in a nightclub, yet she continued to grapple
• 2:39
  with her addiction. In early nineteen ninety seven, fan man
• 2:44
  Yee encountered chan man Lock, a thirty four year old socialite,
• 2:49
  at the nightclub. They quickly discovered their shared circumstances. Fan
• 2:54
  man Ye was entrenched in prostitution and drug use, while
• 2:58
  chan Manlock operated as a pimp and drug dealer. It
• 3:03
  was not long before she became a frequent member of
• 3:06
  Manlock's entourage alongside his associates. Later that same year, driven
• 3:12
  by a dire need for money and drugs, Fan man
• 3:15
  Yi stole chan Manlock's wallet, attempting to abscond with the
• 3:20
  four thousand dollars it contained. Unbeknownst to her, chan Manlock
• 3:25
  was the last individual from whom she should have attempted
• 3:28
  to steal. The unimaginable horrors of the Hello Kitty murder,
• 3:36
  the drug lord and his associates quickly concluded that merely
• 3:39
  exploiting fan man Yi through prostitution was insufficient, leading them
• 3:44
  to escalate their actions to torture. They restrained her an
• 3:49
  inflicted physical violence, subjecting her to a month long ordeal
• 3:54
  filled with unspeakable atrocities, including the burning of her skin,
• 3:59
  sexual assault, and forcing her to consume human waste. While
• 4:04
  the torment endured by Fan man Ye is deeply disturbing,
• 4:08
  an equally chilling aspect of this narrative involves a fourteen
• 4:12
  year old girl who reported her murder to the authorities.
• 4:17
  This girl not only played a crucial role in exposing
• 4:20
  the perpetrators, but was also complicit in the acts of
• 4:24
  torture herself. Referred to only as R. Fong, a name
• 4:30
  likely assigned by the Hong Kong judicial system, this fourteen
• 4:34
  year old was romantically linked to Chan man Lock. Although
• 4:38
  the term girlfriend may not accurately reflect their relationship, it
• 4:43
  is highly probable that she was yet another of his
• 4:46
  victims forced into prostitution. The death of Fan man Yi.
• 4:51
  Following a month of torment, Arfong learned that Fan man
• 4:55
  Yi had passed away during the night. Chan Manlock and
• 4:59
  his associates contended that her death resulted from a self
• 5:03
  administered methamphetamine overdose. However, many experts believed that her injuries
• 5:09
  were the primary cause of her demise. This belief remains speculative,
• 5:14
  as there is no definitive way to ascertain the exact cause.
• 5:19
  Upon discovering her lifeless body, the henchmen relocated man Ye's
• 5:24
  remains to the bathtub of the apartment, where they proceeded
• 5:29
  to dismember her using a saw. To prevent decomposition and
• 5:34
  the subsequent odor of decaying flesh, they cooked the severed
• 5:38
  body parts utilizing boiling water on the same stove where
• 5:42
  they prepared their meal. The perpetrators boiled the dismembered pieces
• 5:47
  and ultimately disposed of them along with the household garbage.
• 5:51
  The trial of Chan Manlock and the Hello Kitty murderers,
• 5:56
  in return for the protection she likely received due to
• 6:00
  her youth, Arthong provided testimony against Chan Manloch and his
• 6:05
  two accomplices in an effort to alleviate the torment she
• 6:09
  claimed to be suffering. She recounted the brutal treatment inflicted
• 6:14
  upon Fan man Ye
