SHE had been looking forward to a trip home after six months away. But Ms Han Yanfei never made the Nov 27 flight back to China. Just three weeks before her much-anticipated return to Liaoning province, the 28-year-old karaoke singer and hostess went missing.
The Chinese national's mysterious disappearance came just a day before a regular client of the karaoke lounge she was working at was found dead.
On Nov 9, Mr Steven Ng's lifeless body, clad only in his underwear, was found floating near the shores of East Coast Park. Mr Ng, a businessman, is believed to be married with two children.
Relatives and colleagues of Ms Han said that the two were 'intimate' and believed to be a couple. Ms Han's colleagues added that they last saw her at about 3am on Nov 8, as she left her workplace - Song KTV - on Telok Ayer Street alone.
Her employer made a report on Nov 10, when she did not show up for work and calls to her mobile phone went unanswered. Ms Han's family made a police report last week, after they could not reach her on the phone and were told by her employer that she had not shown up for work. They also filed a missing person's report with Crime Library.
Anyone with information on Ms Han can call the police hotline on 1800-255-0000.
