Family tells of suspicions over Law's death

The parents of the Bossini heiress Bonnie Evita Law have expressed suspicion over her death and say they are upset her widower is eyeing his father-in-law's fortune, Eastweek reported.

Law, granddaughter of Bossini founder Law Ting-pong, died on January 28 in South Korea after undergoing liposuction and breast augmentation.

Law's father, Raymond Law Ka-kui, learned that his daughter tried to say her last words on her way to the hospital but was either not understood or was unable to speak before her death, according to the magazine.

"[Law's parents] are using all means to find out what her last words were, even seeking advice from an oracle, and have tried to ask for information from the clinic to see if any CCTV footage could have caught anything useful," a source told the magazine.

Law's parents could not believe that their daughter had died and alleged that someone was trying to harm her.

The source added that the family was "offended, depressed and frustrated" by Law's husband, Danny Chi, who publicized her death through the press and social media as the family sought to keep a low profile.

"Chi did not notify Law's parents before filing a lawsuit against the clinic, which made them very angry, while they have not recovered from their sadness after losing their daughter," Eastweek quoted a source as saying.

The source said the family was offended by Chi's calculation of compensation as he sought damages from the clinic for the loss of one-third of his father-in-law's estate.

"Raymond Law has two daughters and a son. It wouldn't be unusual for him to equally distribute his estate to the three, but he is still alive," the source said. "Chi seeking damage for future assets is not convincing at all and gives others a feeling that he is greedy."

Chi defended himself on social media, saying: "[I] received a call about my wife being revived in Korea. I was very shocked because I didn't know that my wife went under the knife. Obviously, [not all] men know the beauty secrets of their wives."

He said he immediately tried to search for good doctors and hospitals only to discover his wife had passed away before he arrived in Seoul.

Chi said police in South Korea had not launched a criminal investigation but offered to help him file a complaint.

A medical practitioner at the clinic also handed over all information to Chi upon request.

"Why can he be so comfortable giving all this information? Well the answer to that question is clear. He is protected by a set of regulations! Your wife has been killed and there's nothing you can do. That means the real killer is the regulation," Chi said.

Chi filed a lawsuit last Wednesday for unspecified damages against the Ollim Plastic Surgery clinic in Seoul, its two doctors and a nurse for alleged manslaughter and forging of presurgery documents.

But he withdrew the litigation on Monday, saying he only wished to raise awareness of malpractice concerns.
