The magistrate's finding that the plea was genuine and voluntary was entitled to stand because the police officer was available for cross-examination and the magistrate permissibly weighed the mother and daughter's evidence against the context and existing material; therefore the application to set aside the plea was correctly refused. On sentence, the training centre order for So Lai Shan was appropriate and upheld; the sentence for Kong Suet Man was varied to a two-year probation order because of materially improved probation reports and changed family circumstances.
