Leslie Khoo Kwee Hock (Chinese: 邱贵福; pinyin: Qiū Guìfú; born c. 1968) is a criminal from Singapore who was convicted for the murder of his Chinese girlfriend Cui Yajie (Chinese: 崔雅洁; pinyin: Cuī Yǎjié), with whom he had an extra-marrital affair. Khoo, who had previously been criminally convicted for cheating and forgery, argued with his girlfriend in a car on 12 July 2016; the argument turned violent and Khoo strangled Cui in a moment of anger. Later, Khoo took Cui's corpse to a forest in Lim Chu Kang where he burned the body for three days before he was arrested on 20 July 2016.
Khoo was found guilty of murder three years after his arrest and sentenced to life imprisonment. His case was the second murder conviction without a body after the high-profile Sunny Ang trial in 1965. The murder of Cui Yajie, which took place near Gardens by the Bay, became known as the Gardens by the Bay murder to the public.[1][2]
