在本案中,被告MBUGUA JAMES WAIGWA因涉嫌走私危险毒品被起诉。他辩称自己是在被迫的情况下吞下了毒品,并声称其父亲曾遭绑架,因此被威胁要杀害其家人以迫使他配合。法院审理了控方关于他在2008年7月6日通过腹部异常携带并排出大量海洛因的指控。被告在庭审中坚称自己无辜,并表示之前曾被迫吞下毒品以换取前往广州的机会。最终,高等法院上诉庭认为原审法官对“规避行为”的概念没有误导陪审团,并且充分考虑了被告关于其父亲被绑架的证据。因此,驳回了被告提出的超出时效的上诉申请。

In HKSAR v. Mbugua James Waigwa, the defendant appealed out of time against a conviction for trafficking

本案涉及何惠貞女士因涉嫌欺诈而被定罪并提出上诉。核心争议在于对四位证人的证据处理方式及其陈述的可信度。法院认为,尽管检方在交叉询问中使用了引导性问题和不当评论,但这些并未实质损害被告的辩护案情。然而,法官在讯问肯尼·梁时的干预被认为是不恰当的。此外,关于Cyberspace公司的文件记录是否在警方调查时可用的问题也进行了讨论。最终,法院允许何惠貞女士针对其刑罚提出上诉,并将她的总刑期从7年3个月减至7年3个月。同时,肯尼·梁和胡宝康的刑罚维持不变。

本案涉及香港特别行政区竞争事务审裁处(以下简称“审裁处”)对林德HKO有限公司、Tse Chun Wah及林德 GmbH提起的反垄断调查申请。申请人要求被申请人提供一般性文件,但未能按照规定程序提出正式申请。审裁处认为,根据《竞争事务审裁处规则》第24条的规定,所有临时性的申请,包括发现和生产文件,必须通过提交形式2的诉状进行。由于申请人未按规定提交诉状,且其在提交材料中假设一般性文件交换是惯例的做法,这与法律规定不符,因此审裁处驳回了申请人的请求。
|
||||
The Competition Commission sought orders for Linde HKO Limited, Tse Chun Wah, and Linde Gmbh to make
|
||||
general discovery of relevant documents in an enforcement action. The court declined the application
|
||||
as it was not properly formulated according to Rule 24 of the Competition Tribunal Rules, which requires
|
||||
a summons be filed. The tribunal noted that while the Commission can make broad discovery, this must
|
||||
be requested through proper procedure.

The Competition Commission sought judicial review against the Tribunal's decision regarding two competition

本案涉及原告Tam先生对被告Ng Sheung Yee因驾驶不当导致人身伤害提起的损害赔偿诉讼。核心争议在于被告是否在事故发生时存在注意力不集中或短暂低血压等影响驾驶能力的情况,以及其应承担的责任程度。法院经审理认为,尽管被告有50多年的驾驶经验且未违反交通法规,但未能及时注意到信号灯变化并闯红灯,因此认定其因疏忽导致事故的发生。法院还考虑了被告的悔罪态度及早认罪等因素,最终判处被告缓刑9个月,并在接下来12个月内不得驾驶,如再犯将撤销缓刑。
|

In this case, HKSAR sued NG SHEUNG YEE for personal injuries caused by his dangerous driving at a pedestrian

In HKSAR v Chow Hang Tung et al., the Magistrates' Courts of Hong Kong found that the defendants, including
|
||||
Chow Hang Tung, Tang Ngok Kwan, and Tsui Hon Kwong, were required to comply with a notice to provide

||||
information under the National Security Law. The court assessed evidence from prosecution witnesses,
|
||||
including PW1 and PW2, and concluded their non-compliance was unjustified. Key laws cited included Sch.
|
||||
5 of the National Security Law. Defendants were convicted for failing to comply.
