TORONTO – The murder trial of a woman accused of plotting to kill her parents in a home invasion in November 2010 continues today with the testimony of her father.

Hann Pan, 60, was shot in the face and his wife was shot twice in the head, but did not survive.

Their daughter, Jennifer Pan, 27, her boyfriend Danny Wong, 28, and three other men are each charged with first-degree murder.

The Crown alleges the young woman orchestrated the hit on her parents – which initially appeared to be a home invasion – because she was angry they had thwarted her relationship with Wong.

Hann Pann testified Tuesday explaining in detail what had happened that day and having a stranger point a gun at his forehead.

“Where is the (expletive) money? Wake up!” Pan said the man barked.

“I was very scared and I was surprised.”

In the family’s TV room, after spotting a second man holding a gun to his daughter on his way downstairs, Pan saw his wife soaking her feet in a small tub after coming home from an evening of line dancing.

A third man had a gun pointed at his wife, 53-year-old Bieh Ha Pan.

“The person who was holding me asked me another question: ‘Where’s the (expletive) money?”‘ Pan said.

“I said the money with me is not much.”

“Liar!” the man said, and struck him on the back of the head with the weapon, Pan testified.

Crown lawyer Michelle Rumble elicited that the Pans, who had paid off their home in Markham, Ont., would have left an estate worth about $1 million at the time of the killing.

Their son and daughter stood to inherit the money equally, something his wife had often discussed with their daughter, Pan told the court.
