BEIJING: Actor Eric Tsang says a video that names him as one of two male stars who raped actress Yammie Lam is fake news.
In a statement issued Wednesday (Jan 10), he said the clip of an interview with Lam that surfaced on the Chinese Internet had been falsely edited, iFeng website reported.
Tsang, 64, said he had engaged a law firm to take action against the video.
Lam, 54, has a history of mental illness and erratic behaviour, following a road accident in 1998.
On Wednesday, the story resurfaced in China, with a video that purported to show Yam naming the late actor Alan Tang and Tsang as her attackers. - The Straits Times/Asia News Network
