CCK murder victim buried in red dress

From OMY:
The parents were so angered by her murder that she was dressed in red at her death. Chinese believe that dressing a dead person in red means the deceased did not die in peace and would seek vengeance.

Zhang Jie, a university student, was 25 when she was brutally murdered on 7th July 2013 by her Chinese boyfriend Xiao Gui Liang (30 years-old, driver) in a 10th floor unit at Blk 674 in Choa Chu Kang. The pair have been dating for 3 to 4 years and they were fighting before the murder took place. Zhang was described as pretty and loved to make-up.

Zhang suffered more than 30 knife wounds. Her face was severely disfigured with wounds from the left ear to the chin and long cuts around the mouth. To fend off her attacker, her hands suffered wounds as long as 40cm. The most horrific wound was to the left eye as it was dislocated from the socket.

Zhang's parents only manage to arrive in Singapore two days ago from Dalian, China. As she was badly disfigured, the mortician had to spend 2 hours to beautify her. Her parents were visibly distraught and the 9 persons who were at her funeral were seen crying.
