The nomination is for a payout from her CPF savings in the event of her death. The note also granted the unknown beneficiary a «friendly loan of US$50,000 (S$68,000) based on our friendship in the past», separate from the CPF nomination. Spanish media outlet La Verdad de Murcia reported on April 28 that the Civil Guard, one of two national police forces, was examining the note written on the 39-year-old's iPad on March 24. «I want to declare that my decision to name you in my CPF is because you have been a friend for a long time and my trusted confidant,» read the note. The newspaper said the message «raises as many questions as it answers». Ms Fang was found dead with 30 stab wounds and other injuries near a parking area for lorries in the town of Abanilla in south-eastern Spain on April 10 while she was on a solo trip.
