The mystery of the tragic case of a wife killing her husband and then dismembering his body: Neither the body nor the weapon was found, it was made into an 18+ movie full of `eye-watering` hot scenes.

Still in the 1990s, Hong Kong’s `high school` film industry was the most flourishing in Asia with not only hot scenes, but also horror massacre cases.

In 1993, the film called My Better Half (roughly translated: My Beautiful Love) broke away `slightly` from the 18+ film genre at that time when it brought a collection of 3 different short films, all revolving around the tragedy series.

Just because of one word `jealousy`, the perpetrator pushed his love and life into a tragic place…

One day, mother told her daughter that she killed her father…

On an afternoon in late March 1988, Pho My Linh went to the police station to report the mysterious disappearance of her father – Mr. Pho Duong.

The police came to take away Ma Khiet Chi (from here on referred to as Ms. Ma) as suspect number 1 in the disappearance of Mr. Pho Duong.

When arriving at apartment number 312, lot D of Khang Di Hoa Vien residential area, the police found many strange blood stains on the floor, walls, curtains as well as on the ceiling of the bedroom and kitchen.

Killed her husband because of suspicion of adultery, with the help of 3 other accomplices

As mentioned, Mrs. Ma herself recounted the entire process of killing her husband.

After more than 30 years of marriage, for the first time, Mrs. Ma suspected that her husband had a `little tam` outside.

When he woke up, they forced him to hand over 200,000 yuan but he refused, so they left helplessly.

Mrs. Ma kept tying her husband up like that overnight even though he struggled violently.

Mrs. Ma hid her husband’s body in the house the next day to avoid suspicion from the neighbors.

Until now, this is the first murder in Hong Kong history in which the perpetrator was convicted even though the victim’s body was not found.

Ms. Ma and her younger brother officially attended the trial on September 29.

At the trial, the psychiatrist presented medical records proving that Ms. Ma suffered from schizophrenia, which made Ms. Ma’s testimony possibly just a fabrication of her imagination.

According to the law, if the perpetrator was mentally unstable at the time of the crime, the crime can be classified as manslaughter.

As a result, Ms. Ma was officially charged with manslaughter with a vote of 5-2.

The case at Khang Di Hoa Vien in 1988 was adapted into 1 of 3 short films in My Beautiful Love.
