Edison Chen receives death threatening letter Hong Kong Cable TV received a threat letter with a bullet directed at Edison Chen, warning him not to appear on any public events after Apr 4, otherwise he will face danger. The letter warned the actor, whose sex photos were exposed last year, not to return to Hong Kong and to refrain from appearing on all public events in all countries otherwise he will bring danger his own life. The sender also claimed that he had given Chen a last chance during his appearance in Singapore on Feb 27 and this letter will be a last warning to him. The letter appeared to be sent from Pennsylvania, United States, written in English on an A4 sized paper and placed in a paper bag with a bullet. The station received the package at about 5pm on Mar 11. Pasted on the envelope was 10 stamps printed with clocks, which to the Chinese is an inauspicious gift signifying sending one to his ends. The "deadline" that was given, Apr 4, is the Qingming Festival, which also carries a strong connotation of death. According to Hong Kong media, Chen also received phone threats one year ago on Feb 21 before his press conference in Hong Kong to announce his withdrawal from showbiz in the country. After stepping out of the airport in the company of police, Chen received two death threatening phone calls. Chen spoke briefly to the caller before he passed the phone to the police who heard the caller threaten to kill the former. As the caller had full details of Chen's schedule and personal profile including his new mobile phone number, the police took the matter very seriously and immediately informed their superior of the situation. The police also classified Chen as "protected person" and leveled up security measures including approving for him to give evidence in the Canada court, in the case of Sze Ho-Chun, a computer technician who was charged in Hong Kong with illegally posting the explicit photos online. After the death threatening note was exposed, Chen's father told reporters in a phone interview that police has yet to get in touch with him and he has not understood the whole incident, thus was not in the position to comment. God-father of Chen, Anthony Wong said the police should get to the bottom of this incident and also joked that he has to wear a bullet proof vest and helmet when he dine with his god-son in future. Father of Vincy Yeung, Chen's girlfriend, believed the target is not his daughter and thus did not find it necessary to step up on security or be overly worried. Both Gillian Chung and Cecilia Cheung, female stars involved in the sex photo scandal, declined to comment on the death threat.
with the money from the celebrity careers he has ruined, he could probably die 1000 deaths and there would still be money left over ...
Come to think about it, you have a point there LOLZ Probably just some crazy fan... I have no idea other than in the case of Cecilia Cheung, why any Triad would waste their time on him, its not like he cost the Triads any money right?
the black community wants to kill him because he leaked the photos and destroyed the images of those hk stars... i bet these back communities are the bosses of some of the victims like cecilia ... >_<
LOl the bullet sent by post ... it should have said at the end of the letter "the next bullet will be coming at you much faster"
