One convicted of conspiracy to defraud over $4.73 million through 100% guarantee loans using false information; judge says evidence showed multiple coincidences

涉以假資料詐騙473萬百分百擔保貸款 一人串謀詐騙罪成 官:證據出現多重巧合

Four men and women were accused of providing false information to defraud banks into approving more than $4.73 million in loans under the SME 100% Guarantee Loan Scheme. They were charged by the Police National Security Department with four offences, including conspiracy to defraud and money laundering. Defendant Cheung Ho-yeung had earlier pleaded guilty in the “Gwong Sing Ze” case and had the charges in this case withdrawn. Two other defendants subsequently pleaded guilty, while the remaining defendant, Chow, was convicted on Tuesday (30th) in the District Court of one count of conspiracy to defraud. Acting judge Jason Siu Ming Wan said WhatsApp records showed that the defendant had asked the mastermind to transfer $500,000 earned from trading watches into the company’s income so that the amount could be increased when applying for a 100% guarantee loan for a second time. On the day the two discussed the matter, the mastermind instructed an employee to forge documents claiming that the company had received a $500,000 deposit. The judge found that the “multiple coincidences” in the evidence could not have occurred, and convicted the defendant of conspiracy to defraud. As for another conspiracy-to-defraud charge, the judge said the defendant had proposed that the mastermind alter the company’s rental records when applying for a loan, and the conversation was suspicious. However, the charge alleged that the defendant had altered the company’s salary records and turnover, so the defendant was acquitted. Of the three convicted defendants, the female defendant who had pleaded guilty earlier was granted bail, while the other two were remanded in custody. The case was adjourned to 14 October for sentencing.

4 名男女涉提供虛假資料,透過中小企百分百擔保貸款計劃,詐騙銀行批出逾 473 萬元貸款,被警方國安處起訴串謀欺詐、洗黑錢等 4 罪。其中被告張昊揚早前在「光城者案」認罪,在本案獲撤控。另兩名被告先後認罪,餘下 1 人周二(30 日)在區域法院被裁定 1 項串謀詐騙罪成。 暫委法官溫紹明指, WhatsApp 紀錄顯示,被告曾著主謀將炒賣手錶所得的 50 萬元,撥入公司收入,以便第二度申請「百分百貸款」時將金額提高。而在兩人討論當日,主謀指示員工偽造單據,報稱公司收到 50 萬元訂金。官認為證據間出現「多重巧合」,不可能發生,串謀詐騙罪成。 至於另一項串謀詐騙罪,官指被告雖曾提議主謀申請貸款時,修改公司租金紀錄,對話可疑,但控罪是指控被告更改公司薪金紀錄及營業額,故裁定罪名不成立。3 名罪成被告,除早前認罪的女被告獲准保釋,其餘兩人均須還押,案件押後至 10 月 14 日判刑。

Lam Cheuk-ting denies obstructing Chan Heng-pan and Holden Chow at LegCo; James Tien says Lam was concerned about his health and he sensed no one intended to hurt anyone

林卓廷否認立會阻陳恒鑌、周浩鼎 石禮謙作供:林關心身體、沒感到有人欲傷害他人

The Legislative Council considered the Fugitive Offenders Ordinance amendment bill in 2019, while the Bills Committee held two parallel meetings. When pro-establishment lawmakers escorted James Tien to chair a meeting, pan-democratic lawmakers tried to stop them. Lam Cheuk-ting denied two charges of obstructing Chan Heng-pan and Holden Chow. The judge ruled that there was a case to answer. The trial entered its third day on Tuesday (30th), and the judge adjourned the case for closing submissions in late October and a verdict in early November. Lam Cheuk-ting chose to testify, saying that before the meeting he had accepted that Tien was the lawful chair and knew that Tien had undergone heart surgery. He therefore told Tien that there would be no violent conduct that day. As the scene was noisy, Lam wanted Tien to hear his views, so he went behind Tien and touched his left arm to attract his attention. He also asked Tien to suspend the meeting, saying he “didn’t want anyone to get hurt”. The defence also called James Tien to testify. He said that at the time of the incident only Gary Fan and Eddie Chu had tried to seize the microphone. Lam Cheuk-ting was concerned about his health and asked, “Are you all right? OK?” Tien also said that he never felt attacked, never felt that anyone intended to hurt anyone else, and never felt threatened by Lam. He considered Lam to be among those who were “not actively stopping” the obstruction.

立法會 2019 年審議《逃犯條例》修訂法案,法案委員會「鬧雙胞」。建制派護送石禮謙主持會議時被民主派議員阻止,林卓廷否認妨礙陳恒鑌、周浩鼎兩罪,官裁定表證成立,案件周二(30 日)進入第三日審訊,官押後 10 月底結案陳詞,11 月初裁決。 林卓廷選擇作供,稱在會議前已接受石為合法的主持,亦得悉他曾接受心臟手術,故向石表明當日不會有激烈行為。而現場嘈雜,林望石聽到其意見,故走到石的後方,並觸碰其左手手臂,希望引起石注意,期間亦曾要求石暫停會議,「唔想任何人受傷」。 辯方亦傳召石禮謙作供。他供稱,事發時只有范國威及朱凱廸曾嘗試搶咪,林卓廷在旁關心他的身體,問「無問題啊嘛?OK 嘛?」,石又指,沒一刻感受到有人襲擊他,沒感受到有人欲傷害他人,亦沒感受到林對自己有任何威脅,認為林屬「不積極阻止」一員。

Agape Garden appeals over removal of mooncakes; director says FEHD suspected illegal food production and stresses they were not made at warehouse

膳心小館遭檢走月餅提申訴 董事供稱遭食環署懷疑非法生產食物 強調月餅非於涉事貨倉製作

In August 2024, a large quantity of mooncakes belonging to the social enterprise “Agape Garden” was sealed by the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department (FEHD) at a warehouse after an alleged complaint that their origin was unclear. The same batch was removed by the department in December. Agape Garden filed a complaint with the court under the Public Health and Municipal Services Ordinance, seeking an order to quash the FEHD’s decision and compensation. The case opened at Kwun Tong Magistrates’ Courts on Monday (29th). The company’s director testified that the company did not make mooncakes at the warehouse in question. She said some of the mooncakes there had been produced at another company factory holding a food manufacturing licence, and were then given to needy elderly people after customers subscribed for them at the shop. She said department officers stated during an inspection that they “suspected illegal food production” and asked about the source of the mooncakes. During the first two weeks after the mooncakes were sealed, FEHD officers came “almost every day, claiming they wanted to have a look, walk around and take photographs”. The director also said Centre for Food Safety officers later visited and said they wanted to buy mooncakes. She refused, saying the mooncakes were intended for donation and were not for sale, but the officers insisted on taking mooncakes from the sealed boxes. “They left money and took the mooncakes,” she said. The police were eventually called. The case continues on Tuesday.

2024 年 8 月,社企「膳心小館」月餅疑遭投訴來歷不明,被食環署查封貨倉內大批月餅,至同年 12 月再檢走該批月餅。「膳心小館」按《公眾衞生及市政條例》向法庭申訴,要求頒令撤銷食環署決定及賠償,周一(29 日)在觀塘裁判法院開審。 公司董事供稱,不會在涉案貨倉內製造月餅,指倉內部分月餅,是在公司另一持食物製造牌照的廠房製作,在門市獲客人認購後,再送贈有需要的長者。她指,署方職員巡查時稱「懷疑非法生產食物」,又追問月餅來源,而在月餅被封存後首兩星期,食環署「差唔多日日都上嚟,聲稱要睇吓、行個圈同影相」。 董事又指,食安中心職員其後上門稱欲購買月餅,她拒絕指月餅用作捐贈、不予購買,惟職員堅持從封存的紙箱內取走月餅,「佢哋扔低錢拎走啲月餅」,最終報警處理。案件周二續。

League of Social Democrats street-station illegal fundraising case: Chan Po-ying denied final leave to appeal; CFA finds no reasonable grounds

社民連街站非法籌款案 陳寶瑩申終極上訴許可被拒 終院:無合理給予許可的理由

In the case in which the League of Social Democrats was alleged to have illegally solicited donations by displaying a Patreon QR code at a street station in 2021, chairperson Chan Po-ying appealed against her conviction. The appeal was dismissed by Deputy High Court Judge Yiu Fan-chi last August, and a certificate for an appeal to the Court of Final Appeal was refused in February this year. Chan Po-ying subsequently applied directly to the Court of Final Appeal for leave to appeal. The Court of Final Appeal’s Appeal Committee rejected her application on Friday (26th), saying there were no reasonable grounds for granting leave to appeal. In other words, Chan Po-ying can no longer challenge the Court of First Instance’s decision through an appeal. The documents show that the Appeal Committee comprised permanent judges of the Court of Final Appeal Li Yee and Lam Man-hon, and non-permanent judge Patrick Siu Oi Chan.

社民連被指 2021 年在街站展示 Patreon 二維碼非法籌款一案,主席陳寶瑩就定罪提出上訴,去年 8 月被高院暫委法官姚勳智駁回,今年 2 月再被拒絕批出上訴至終審法院證明書。 陳寶瑩其後直接向終院申請上訴許可,終院上訴委員會周五(26 日)拒絕其申請,指案件無合理給予上訴許可的理由。換言之,陳寶瑩無法再透過上訴挑戰原訟庭決定。 文件顯示,是次終院上訴委員會由終院常任法官李義、林文瀚,及非常任法官陳兆愷組成。

Typhoon Ragasa | 54-year-old man summoned for swimming at Tuen Mun’s Golden Beach under No. 10 signal

樺加沙打風| 十號風球下涉在屯門黃金泳灘游水 54歲男子遭票控

A 54-year-old man was suspected of swimming at Tuen Mun’s Golden Beach on Wednesday (24th) while the No. 10 Hurricane Signal was in force, and was prosecuted for allegedly violating the Beaches Regulation. It is understood that during Super Typhoon Ragasa’s impact on Hong Kong, a man swam at the closed Golden Beach in Tuen Mun on Wednesday. Police applied to the court for a summons today (26th) to prosecute the 54-year-old man for allegedly violating the Beaches Regulation. Police have taken enforcement action for two consecutive days against alleged storm-chasing activities during Ragasa’s impact on Hong Kong. Police arrested two women yesterday afternoon after they allegedly took children to watch the waves at South Horizons, on suspicion of neglecting children.

一名54歲男子涉嫌於周三(24 日)十號颶風信號下,在屯門黃金泳灘游水,違《泳灘規例》遭檢控。 據了解,超強颱風「樺加沙」襲港期間,一名男子周三在已封閉的屯門黃金泳灘游泳,警方今日(26日)向法庭申請傳票,檢控該名54歲男子,涉嫌違反《泳灘規例》。 警方連續兩日針對樺加沙襲港期間涉追風行為執法,警方昨日下午拘捕兩名女子,她們被指帶小童到海怡半島觀浪,涉嫌疏忽照顧兒童。

Man with autism convicted over Telegram messages inciting destruction of testing centres and mentioning “randomly killing dogs”; sentenced to 15 months, hospital order refused

涉TG煽惑破壞檢測中心、提「隨機殺狗」等 患自閉症男子罪成 官判囚15月、拒判醫院令

During the fifth wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in February 2022, a 28-year-old man with autism was alleged to have posted messages including “bomb nucleic acid testing stations” and “randomly killing dogs” in a Telegram group. After trial, he was convicted on all three charges, including inciting common assault and criminal damage, and was sentenced to 15 months’ imprisonment on Thursday (25th). The defence repeatedly urged the court to impose a hospital order. Deputy District Judge Tsui Mei-ha rejected the submission, noting that the defendant had seen more than 10 doctors throughout his life, “from childhood to adulthood”, yet “in 31 years, no one had proposed a hospital order or admission to a psychiatric hospital”. She also noted that the defendant had worked in the community for many years and had a post-secondary education, asking whether “confining him in a psychiatric hospital would really be the most beneficial option for his rehabilitation”. The judge said she did not accept that the offences had been committed under the influence of mental illness. She said that encouraging the indiscriminate taking of police officers’ lives represented violence of the most serious kind. She also criticised the defendant for posting messages that incited, encouraged and offered rewards to others to bomb testing stations at a time when the government and healthcare institutions were making every effort to prevent the spread of the virus. Had anyone acted on the incitement, she said, the resulting casualties could have been severe. Even though the defendant was a first-time offender, a custodial sentence was appropriate.

2022 年 2 月第五波新冠疫情期間,28 歲患自閉症男子被指在 TG 群組,發布「炸核酸站」、「隨機殺狗」等訊息,他經審訊後被裁定煽惑普通襲擊、刑事損壞等 3 罪全數罪成,周四(25 日)被判監 15 個月。 辯方再三陳詞要求法庭判處醫院令。區院暫委法官崔美霞拒絕,指被告一生中見過 10 多個醫生、「由細睇到大」,惟「31 年嚟,無人提出要醫療令或者住精神病院」,又指被告在社會工作多年、有大專學歷,反問「法庭將佢困喺精神病患院入面,係咪對佢復康最有用呢?」 法官指,不接受被告受精神病影響犯案,指鼓勵隨機奪取警員生命,暴力程度屬最嚴重,又批評他在政府、醫療機構盡一切努力阻止病毒蔓延時,發布煽惑鼓勵及獎賞他人炸毀檢測站的留言。如有人受煽惑而實踐,將會傷亡慘重,即使是初犯,監禁式刑罰亦合適。

Challenge to Secondary School Hair Rules | School Board Granted Approval to Submit CUHK Professor’s Report on School Uniform and Grooming Norms

挑戰中學髮禁|校董會一方擬呈中大教授報告證校服儀容有常規 官批准

Two secondary school graduates filed a claim in the District Court, saying they had gender dysphoria and special educational needs but that the schools had failed to address them. They said that, after they refused to cut their hair short, they were required either to be publicly singled out at school or to switch to online classes, causing them severe emotional distress. They asked the court to declare that the schools had breached the Sex Discrimination Ordinance and Disability Discrimination Ordinance, and sought compensation and an apology. Both sides separately applied to submit expert reports. District Court Chief Judge Ko King-shiu handed down a judgment on Tuesday (23rd), approving the schools’ application to submit an expert report by a professor at the Chinese University of Hong Kong to demonstrate that there are conventions in Hong Kong regarding school uniforms and grooming. The students questioned how the expert’s research methods could establish such conventions, and argued that, even if they existed, they involved gender stereotypes. The judge held that the schools’ expert was professionally qualified to give evidence and that the research methods could be challenged at trial. The judge therefore approved the inclusion of the report at this stage.

兩名中學畢業生入稟區院,指自己有性別不安及特殊學習需要,但校方完全沒處理,更因他們拒絕剪短頭髮,被要求在校內示眾或改上網課,令他們承受沉重精神壓力,要求法庭宣告校方違反性別和殘疾歧視條例、作賠償及道歉。 雙方各自申請呈交專家報告。區院首席法官高勁修周二(23 日)頒判詞,批准校方的申請,讓其呈交中大教授的專家報告,以證明香港在校服和儀容上有常規;學生一方則質疑專家的研究方法如何證明常規,而就算有,亦涉性別刻板印象。 官認為,校方的專家有專業資格提供證據,而其研究方法可在審訊中挑戰,故現階段批准加入報告。

Hong Kong Settlers Housing Corporation sues Tai Hang Sai Estate residents who have not moved out; judge says residents’ grounds have “basically already lost”, voices concern over undertaking restricting claims

平屋控大坑西邨未遷出居民 官指居民理據「基本上已經輸咗」 關注承諾書限制索償

Tai Hang Sai Estate in Shek Kip Mei is to be demolished and redeveloped. The Hong Kong Settlers Housing Corporation Limited, which built and manages the estate, has brought civil proceedings against several residents who refused to move out. Thirteen residents have not reached settlements, and the cases are being handled as two consolidated actions. In one consolidated action, one resident reached a settlement before the trial, while the remaining six began trial at the District Court on Monday (22nd).

石硤尾大坑西邨將清拆重建,興建與管理該邨的「平民屋宇有限公司」,民事控告多名拒絕遷出的居民,其中 13 人未達成和解,合併兩案處理。在其中一宗合併案,一居民開審前達和解,餘下 6 人周一(22 日)在區域法院開審。 「平屋」指於 60 年代幫助光民村居民回遷至大坑西邨,僅安排租住,並非給予業權。居民一方爭議租約條款,官強調業主有權收樓,居民相關理據「基本上已經輸咗」,但關注「平屋」在承諾書限制居民索償,或令居民感覺「冇揸拿」,稱條款「加啲減啲,可能會達到一個公正嘅平衡」。

‘Baa Hei Gor’ Tsang Kin-fung pleads guilty to spray-painting ‘6436’ and candles in Sha Tin on June 4, receives one-year probation order

六四沙田黑漆噴「6436」、蠟燭圖案 曾建峯認罪 判感化一年

Former Civic Party member ‘Baa Hei Gor’ Tsang Kin-fung was accused of using black spray paint to write “6436” and draw candle designs on Fo Tan Road and a notice board this year on June 4. He was charged with criminal damage and changed his plea to guilty before the trial began. He was sentenced to a 12-month conditional probation order at Sha Tin Magistrates’ Courts on Thursday (18th).

前公民黨成員「霸氣哥」曾建峯,被指今年六四在火炭馬路及告示欄,以黑色噴漆噴上「6436」、蠟燭圖案,被控刑事損壞。他至開審前改為認罪,周四(18 日)在沙田裁判法院被判處 12 個月有條件感化令。 暫委裁判官江美儀指,被告醉酒不是求情理由,其行為可能令人受煽惑,造成不可收拾的局面,又指其行為自私,不能姑息,但接納感化報告指他已意識問題,認為感化令可防止重犯,「聽從感化專業意見未嘗不可」。 判罰後,曾建峯在法院外表示承擔了自己的責任,希望當權者亦可以勇於承擔責任,又稱「6436」的字句是否煽惑破壞安寧,留待大眾判斷。

Young people jailed over 2019 anti-extradition bill events released; some unable to return to school and seek help

2019年反修例事件判囚青年出獄 部分無法復學求助《信報》引述議會大黨中人慨嘆:相信佢哋已經洗心革面,但都幫唔到佢哋

As Hong Kong focuses on revitalising the economy and making every effort to attract talent, a legislator has disclosed receiving a number of requests for help from young people released after serving prison sentences for cases related to the 2019 anti-extradition bill events. They reportedly wanted to return to school after their release but were unable to do so, even with assistance from legislators. One legislator lamented: “I believe they have turned over a new leaf, but I still can’t help them.” The Hong Kong Economic Journal’s current-affairs column reported today (the 17th) that a pro-establishment party and individual legislators are concerned about young people released after serving sentences for their involvement in anti-extradition bill cases, and want to help them reintegrate into society. Citing legislators, the column said some of the young people were still students before they were arrested but were “kicked out of school” because they were involved in anti-extradition bill cases. A source from the major party in the Legislative Council said that after their release, legislators were still unable to help them return to school despite going to considerable lengths and experiencing considerable difficulty, lamenting: “I believe they have turned over a new leaf, but I still can’t help them.”

香港全力拼經濟,招攬人才不遺餘力。有議員向傳媒披露,陸續收到2019年反修例事件判囚青年出獄後的求助個案,坦言獲釋欲重返校園無果,連議員出面協助也無法復學。有議員慨嘆,「相信佢哋已經洗心革面,但都幫唔到佢哋」。 《信報》時事專欄今(17日)報道,有建制派政黨和個別議員關注因反修例事件入獄後刑滿獲釋的青年,想協助他們重投社會。專欄引述議員消息指出,部分青年被捕前仍是學生,但因涉及反修例案件而遭「踢出校」,該議會大黨中人透露,他們出獄後,議員就算大費周章、經歷一番折騰後,仍然無法讓他們重回校園,感慨「相信佢哋已經洗心革面,但都幫唔到佢哋」。
