HK star Edison Chen in suicide bid claim
http://www.straitstimes.com/Latest%2...ry_205651.html

HONG KONG heartthrob Edison Chen has reportedly attempted suicide after partially nude images of him with several starlets started circulating in the Internet, according to The Star.

In a scandal that has dominated Hong Kong headlines last week, at least 10 suggestive photos posted online seemed to show Chen, singer-actress Gillian Chung, former actress-singer Bobo Chan and actress Cecilia Cheung.

The images are believed to have been copied from Chen's computer when it was serviced at Elite Multi Media Shop in the Central district.

China Press said on Monday that the singer-actor became depressed over the issue and avoided food lately.

He had also reportedly confined himself to his home in the United States, where he fled to after the controversy erupted.

The daily said Chen's image hit rock bottom after the scandal came to light.

Several companies which had sought Chen's endorsement for their products have also terminated their contracts with the star.

Chen had apologised, calling the postings of the photographs 'intentionally hurtful and malicious'.

In a one-minute video statement released to the media through a law firm, the 27-year old urged all who were still in possession of the images to destroy them immediately.

Police arrested six men and two women over the case last week.

A 23-year old man was charged last Tuesday with acessing a computer with criminal or dishonest intent in 2006, said Sing Tao Daily. But he denied he was the source of the photos.

He was released on bail of HK$50,000 (S$9,000) and will go on trial on Feb 22. If convicted, he faces a maximum penalty of five years in prison.

I see no reason why Edison has to commit suicide, if the report is true. He is bloody rich; he will not live in poverty even if he retires now; he has all to gain and nothing to lose after those photos were taken. Maybe it is yet another publicity stunt by Edison.

One more has been arrested, but not Kira

床照風暴牽連甚廣，警方商業罪案調查科科技罪案組再度出招，前日早上在九龍灣拘捕一名二十四歲男子郭振偉（ 譯音），令涉事被捕人數增至九男女。消息透露，被捕男子涉嫌於剛過去的年卅晚在網上討論區內發放一百四十張 床照，昨晚被落案起訴，暫被獲准保釋，案件今日於觀塘裁判法院提堂。

床照風暴擾攘至今逾兩周，網上散播床照的速度驚人，已經擴散至全球伺服器，令警方大為緊張，但礙於法例所限 ，警方只能集中火力監察屬於本港的網站及討論區。正當警方已先後拘控其中兩名涉案人士鍾亦天及史可雋，並言 明會「見一個捉一個」緝捕發布者，有人竟在上周三的年三十晚凌晨，公然在一個本港討論區內發放 逾百張床照供 網友下載。

被落案起訴今提堂
消息透露，科技罪案組探員連日來監察本港各大涉及藝人床照的討論區，於當日發現有人在有關討論 區發布逾百張 極盡淫褻的疑似藝人照片。

除當時已曝光的疑似陳冠希、鍾欣桐、張芝及陳文媛的四級連環照外，還發放當時未有曝光的疑似 女模特兒顏穎 思、前藝人陳思慧及落選華裔小姐陳育嬬等人的四級連環照。其後，迅即有大批網友疑下載該批床照 ，並透過電郵 極速散播。

探員向互聯網供應商取得資料後，前日早上在九龍灣拘捕郭振偉，目前仍點算該男子電腦及手機內存 有床照數目， 並調查該批床照來源。

據了解，被捕男子並非源頭「奇拿」之一，但因他當日發布的床照數量驚人，故警方需再殺一儆百。 警方發言人昨 證實，探員前日早上約八時在九龍區拘捕一名二十四歲男子，昨晚落案控以他一項發布淫褻照片罪名 ，暫被獲准保 釋，案件今日提堂。

Likewise, I believe it's utter nonsense that he's attempting suicide for whatever that has happened thus far. He should have anticipated such consequences when he took those vids/pics. Wasn't he asking for it himself? -_-

Hm.. maybe he wants to be known as "dead" cos by doing so, people won't bother him and no one shall talk about him anymore? Also, by being "dead", maybe those triad boss or police won't find him? *shrugs*

lol but it may be true though. he hit the rock bottom and got chase by triad bosses, sponsor and may be HK police. criticism by people and etc. a lot of pressure. a freaking expensive lesson learn, blame himself for being a celeb and doing such thing. this kind of things spread hell lot fast and quickly gain public attention for celebs.

Life is funny!

Well, it was a pretty reputation-damaging thing.

See, Vanessa Hudgens deliberately leaked that photo, but Edison, assuming he d
