The defendant was in contempt for reposting prohibited personal data in breach of the Police Doxxing Injunction and Anonymity Order; having weighed aggravating features (publication of personal data including a child, less than frank account to police) against mitigation (one‑off conduct, limited reach, deletion before arrest, good character, family and financial hardship, and delay in proceedings), the appropriate and proportionate sentence was 28 days imprisonment suspended for 12 months and an order that the defendant contribute HK$25,000 towards the Secretary for Justice's costs.
