A Hong Kong campsite operator, Tang Lung-fai, was sentenced to life in prison for the murder of his girlfriend, Fok Sin-yee, on or around April 14, 2022. Tang claimed he believed Fok was an alien and told her to crawl into a hole to "reincarnate." The High Court jury rejected Tang's defense that he did not intend to kill Fok, finding him guilty of causing her death. The judge described the murder as a "vicious, brutal and savage attack." Tang admitted to causing Fok's death during a quarrel but denied intending to kill her or cause grievous bodily harm.
