“Ho Huen, 79, pleaded guilty to attacking his 45-year-old wife Ye Xiuding, known as Mrs Ho, with a folding knife”
DISPUTED
The evidence provides conflicting details. One source mentions Ho Huen is 77 and his wife is 44, while the claim states 79 and 45. Furthermore, while the evidence confirms they were charged with wounding each other, it does not explicitly confirm a guilty plea regarding a folding knife in the provided snippets; one snippet mentions a 'knife crime' but it refers to a 'London man' named Michael, which is a different case entirely.
