Early life
Razaq was born in Pakistan, and came to Hong Kong at a young age.
Murders and trial
Razaq was arrested in Macau on 18 March 2008, just days after the murders. He stated that he was beaten by Macau police while in their custody. 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.
