Identity document forgery

    HKSAR v. LI BIJUAN

    Citation
    HKSAR v. LI BIJUAN
    Court
    Court of Appeal
    Case number
    CACC432/2012

    The court held that given the magnitude of the frauds, the applicant's central role, the planning, use of forged identity and title documents and the aggravating factor of coming from the Mainland to commit the offences, the starting points and the total sentence (after one‑third reduction) were appropriate; comparison with lesser roles in HKSAR v Kong Hon Yui was inappropriate; therefore leave to appeal was refused and the 4‑year sentence was upheld.
