The Court refused leave to appeal and affirmed the overall sentences because, given the aggravating factors—illegal immigrant status of victims, virtual captivity and economic exploitation, and the first applicant's involvement in bringing the women into Hong Kong—the overall sentences (three years for Law Kin Ming and 18 months for Lui Kin Kong) were not excessive and did not merit interference; the Court will assess overall appropriateness rather than rearrange individual concurrent or consecutive component sentences.
