Chinese national Tingjun Cao has been found guilty of murdering Yanfei Bao.

The Christchurch woman's body was found in a shallow grave this year - more than a year after going missing.

Cao killed Bao after a private property viewing - before trying to dispose of evidence and leave the country. 

Newstalk ZB's Emily Ansell has been at court.

She says the jury deliberated for just over an hour-and-a-half on Cao's guilt.

"He left as he walked in this afternoon - with his hands behind his back, his head slightly down, he seemed silent, he seemed quiet throughout the jury reading out their verdict."
