(13 Dec 2017) A British banker sentenced to life in prison for the gruesome slayings of two Indonesian women arrived at court in Hong Kong court on Wednesday to appeal his conviction.

The case shocked residents of Hong Kong, while also highlighting wide inequality and seedy aspects usually hidden below the surface.
