Fang Sun, 47, denies killing his former business partner.

He initially had interim name suppression, but today his lawyer David Jones QC confirmed this dropped.

Elizabeth Zhong was reported missing from her home in Suzetta Place, Sunnyhills, in late November.

Her last confirmed sighting was on 27 November at home at 4.30pm and her body was found in the boot of a car a few streets away the next day.

Fang Sun is set to stand trial in April next year.
