Charge A (association with known triads) was quashed because the adjudicating officer's finding that the applicant knew the named persons were triads was unsupported by evidence such that it was unreasonable on judicial review given the required standard of proof; by contrast the tribunal's findings that the applicant made deliberate false statements (Charges C and D) were supported and upheld; sentencing was remitted to the Commissioner to reconsider in light of the quashing and mitigating factors enumerated by the court.
