Man Faces Attempted Murder Charge After Brutal Deptford Attack
Ka Chun Wong, 27, is in the dock at Woolwich Crown Court, accused of a savage attempted murder assault last October. The horrifying attack reportedly targeted Ji Wu and Zhi Liang Chen, whom Wong found together in bed at a flat on Naomi Street, Deptford.
Love Triangle Ends in Violence
The court heard of a twisted love triangle between Wong, Wu, and Chen. The three shared on-and-off relationships throughout 2023. Ms. Wu had been involved with both men at different times and had recently reunited with Mr. Chen when the brutal attack erupted.
Chilling Attack Described in Court
Prosecutor Nathalie McNamee revealed how Wong stormed into Ms. Wu’s home uninvited, armed with a weapon. Just days before the attack, Wong had sent a text hinting at feelings of betrayal. On the day, he reportedly made chilling remarks before launching the ferocious assault on a still-dazed Mr. Chen.
Escape Attempt Fails, Suspect Caught in Brighton
After the attack, Wong fled but was tracked down and arrested in Brighton. Prosecutors claim the vicious assault was premeditated, citing his violent actions and attempts to hide from police. The jury now wrestles with whether Wong intended to kill his victims in this terrifying ordeal.
The trial unfolds with the court determined to uncover the brutal truth behind this tragic, life-threatening attack.
