London, October 6 : Hong Kong actor Edison Chen is returning to the entertainment industry for the first time since his involvement in a sex photo scandal.

The 28-year-old landed in hot water last year when over 1,000 photos showing him having sex with several female stars found their way to the Internet, reports the Daily Express.

The ‘Grudge 2’ star subsequently announced that he would "step away indefinitely" from the studio.

New Delhi, May 14 : A Chinese computer technician involved in the stealing of sexually explicit photos of Canto pop star Edison Chen Koon-hei has been sentenced to eight-and-a-half months in jail.

The Kowloon City Magistrate Court found Dicky Sze Ho-chun, 24, guilty of dishonestly obtaining access to the intimate photos showing Chen in sex acts with female celebrities, including Gillian Chung, Cecilia Cheung and Bobo Chan.
