The appeal was allowed and the suspended sentence was substituted with a fine of HKD 1,000 because the suspended sentence's operational period had expired, the offence was minor and unconnected to official duties, the ICAC's investigation rendered the incitement ineffective and mitigatory, and retention of the suspended sentence would produce a grossly disproportionate collateral consequence (likely dismissal).
