Headless body murder trial at Manchester Crown Court

A jury has heard how a man with gambling debts committed murder so he could assume another man's identity.

At Minshull Street Crown Court in Manchester, Ming Jaing is accused of killing Yang Liu last year.

It's claimed Ming Jiang then tried to cover his tracks before dumping the dismembered body on a quiet country lane.

He denies murder. Matt O'Donogue has been in court.
