A 28-year-old man was apprehended in Tuen Mun on Monday (May 4) for his alleged involvement in the assault and killing of a 36-year-old man during a bar dispute in 2020. He has been formally charged with murder and is set to appear at the Kowloon City Magistrates' Court on Wednesday.

A total of 12 men and one woman have been arrested in relation to the case between October 2020 and November 2022. Eight of the men have been charged with related offenses and will be sentenced at the High Court on Wednesday.
