A 29-year-old British banker arrived at a local court in Hong Kong Monday (November 3) charged with two counts of murder, after authorities found the bodies of two women in his apartment, including one that had been hidden in a suitcase on a balcony.
The man, who has not been officially identified, arrived by van to a local court to be formally charged.
Hong Kong media said the victims were prostitutes from Indonesia.
A spokesman for Bank of America Merrill Lynch told Reuters on Sunday (November 2) that the U.S. bank had, until recently, an employee bearing the same name as a man local media have described as the chief suspect in the double murder case.
Bank of America Merrill Lynch would not give more details nor clarify when the person had left the bank.
Police arrested the man on Saturday (November 1) at his apartment in Wan Chai, a central city district known for its night life. They have declined to give his name.
