    CHENG SIN TUNG v. HANG SENG BANK, LTD

    Court
    District Court
    Case number
    DCMP2903/2025

    Because there was cogent and compelling evidence that the plaintiff was defrauded of HK$46,000 into the identified Hang Seng account, and the targeted disclosure (account opening details and transactional records from 23 March 2025 to the date of the order) was necessary and not unduly wide to enable preservation or discovery of assets, a Norwich Pharmacal order was granted; a gagging order was refused as the plaintiff did not make out a strong case for that exceptional remedy.
