A man accused of murdering his partner, after her body was found 14 months after she went missing, has been granted bail.
Yun Qing "Jack" Liu, 57, was charged with the murder of 44-year-old accountant Cissy Chen after her remains were found in March.
Liu's lawyer Michael Kan made a bail application in the High Court at Auckland today after two previous unsuccessful attempts in May and June.
Justice Pamela Andrews granted the Torbay resident bail but only on strict conditions.
Liu will be released from Mt Eden prison next week and will have to remain at his bail address 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
