Nadeem Razaq (died 2016) was a Hong Kong resident of Pakistani origin who was convicted of the March 2008 murders of three prostitutes in Hong Kong.
In 2016, Razaq died from suicide by hanging.[1]
Razaq was born in Pakistan, and came to Hong Kong at a young age.[2]
Razaq was arrested in Macau on 18 March 2008, just days after the murders.[3] He stated that he was beaten by Macau police while in their custody.[4] Razaq initially confessed to the murders, claiming he had committed them on the instruction of Macau loan sharks to whom he owed money; however, he later withdrew this confession. He came before Judge Clare-Marie Beeson of the High Court of Hong Kong, and pleaded not guilty to the murders; a seven-member jury found him guilty in July 2009, and Beeson sentenced him to life imprisonment.[5]
