Applying the Court of Final Appeal's guidance, the judge concluded that the prolonged undercover operation actively pursued and questioned the defendants such that the interactions amounted to interrogation/elicitation; using those voluntary admissions would be unfair and jeopardise a fair trial, therefore the tapes, transcripts, translations and live evidence of the undercover operatives were excluded under the residual discretion.
