Based on reporting by South China Morning Post:

Cheung Yin-fa, the mother of the deceased Hong Kong socialite Abby Choi Tin-fung, informed a court that her daughter's former brother-in-law, Anthony Kwong Kong-kit, was a 'bootlicker' who coaxed her into funding an egg waffle shop and hiring him as a driver several months before her death. She also stated that she was planning to buy a new HK$20 million flat in Tuen Mun.

During her testimony on the third day at the High Court, Choi's mother stated that Anthony Kwong Kong-kit had often requested financial assistance from her daughter before he was allegedly part of a scheme to kill her in February 2023. She remarked that while they were still on good terms, he frequently claimed he could not find employment, adding that he was a 'really good bootlicker begging for mercy.'

Kwong, who is 35 years old, served as Choi's substitute driver when the 28-year-old model was reportedly attacked during a car trip on February 21, 2023, which she believed was to pick up her daughter from school.
