    The trial magistrate's findings that the appellants were engaging in motor racing were supported by reliable witness evidence and video evidence showing high speed travel, close distances and purposeful lane changes; absent a clear demonstration that those findings were unreasonable or inconsistent, the appellate court will not overturn the convictions or the decision to impose immediate custodial sentences.

    HKSAR v. SHEK KWOK NGAI

    Citation
    HKSAR v. SHEK KWOK NGAI
    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCMA261/2016

    Hostility is not an essential element of non-physical contact indecent assault; on the facts the magistrate was entitled to find from the video and other evidence that the appellant intended his exposed penis to be seen and to cause the complainant to apprehend immediate unlawful violence and that his acts were more than merely preparatory; conviction is safe and upheld.
