For hours after she was killed on July 12 in 2016, the body of a 31-year-old woman remained in the front passenger seat of a car as it was being driven around Singapore by a man now accused of murdering her.

SINGAPORE -

Leslie Khoo Kwee Hock, 50, who is accused of murdering Chinese national Cui Yajie, told the High Court on Tuesday - the fifth day of his murder trial - of what he did after he had strangled her in the front passenger seat of his car. It is not disputed that Khoo spoke to Ms Cui on the phone on July 12 morning, then started a conference call with his supervisor, and assured Ms Cui that he would take her to meet his boss, which he never did.

But Khoo said Ms Cui was angry at him for spending too much time at work, and she wanted to verify with his bosses if he was really so busy. He said he tried to cool her down, but Ms Cui continued to scold and curse him for working"from Sunday to Monday and from Monday to Sunday".Khoo said he pushed her away, and she attacked even more." I also don't know what happened, after a while, she don't move any more," he said, as his voice cracked.
