Bokhary, who had history of brushes with the law, earlier told doctor she was feeling unwell, but declined further medical help, source says
A Hong Kong woman who made tabloid headlines for her repeated brushes with the law and prominent family name has been found dead in her home, the South China Morning Post has learned.
A source told SCMP on Saturday that a 90-year-old woman surnamed Bokhary had reported to police the day before that her daughter had lost consciousness at home.
The younger woman, believed to be in her forties, was certified dead at the scene. The insider identified her as Amina Mariam Bokhary.
“Police checks on the deceased body and family conditions did not show any suspicious circumstances. The case has been listed as a body discovery,” the source said.
She was the niece of Kemal Bokhary, a non-permanent judge of the Court of Final Appeal, and former Executive Council member Ronald Arculli.
The source said Bokhary had contacted her family doctor on Friday morning after feeling unwell, but had declined to seek further medical help.
