    Citation
    HKSAR v. LIU KAM CHI
    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCMA1222/2005

    The magistrate properly admitted the post‑record notebook entry after finding the officer's account credible and rejecting the appellant's account; on the basis of the admitted evidence the prosecution proved the elements of theft beyond reasonable doubt; there was no basis for appellate interference with the magistrate's credibility findings, so the conviction and $1,000 fine were upheld.
