Description:

A Murder Erased delves into a perplexing cold case when a demoted international narcotics officer, now on local duties, is assigned to investigate a grim discovery. The body of YUNG, a man notorious for drug smuggling, rape, and blackmail, is unearthed eight years after his death during the renovation of an old apartment block. The officer initially targets YUNG’s widow and her alleged lover, suspecting adultery as the motive. However, the investigation takes a dramatic turn when a high-ranking court prosecutor intervenes. As scrutiny intensifies, inconsistencies in the officer's own statements come to light, shifting the focus of the inquiry. The investigator suddenly becomes the investigated, as the long-hidden truth behind YUNG’s meticulously erased murder threatens to expose a deeper conspiracy, where justice itself appears compromised.
