Sao Young's body was found on a rural property at Gordonton on 13 April, a month after the 40-year-old was last seen in the Insoll Avenue area of Hamilton.

A 32-year-old man and a 37-year-old man have been charged with murder in the past few days.

A 25-year-old woman has also been charged with murder and kidnapping, and a 28-year old man is charged with being an accessory after the fact, as well as kidnapping.

In total, seven people have now been charged after Young's death.

All are due to appear in the High Court next week.
