    Citation
    HKSAR v. HUI MAN MO
    Court
    Court of Appeal
    Case number
    CACC380/2011

    Leave to appeal was dismissed because the grounds were without merit: the unavailability of the tenant was a tactical advantage to the defence and not counsel incompetence, the appellant failed to substantiate any police impropriety or procedural breach, and credibility issues were rightly for the jury; accordingly an order under s83W(1) Cap 221 was appropriate and one month of custody pending appeal was not to be reckoned as part of the sentence.
