A former Assistant Officer of the Correctional Services Department (CSD), Jivcons Man Wai-kit, was sentenced to 10 months in prison for committing fraud by concealing outstanding liabilities to secure over $890,000 in loans from the Correctional Services Department Credit Union and three financial institutions. He pleaded guilty to nine counts of fraud under section 16A of the Theft Ordinance. The court noted the seriousness of the offenses, which involved deception over three years, and considered his guilty plea in reducing the sentence from 15 to 10 months. The case was uncovered following an ICAC investigation prompted by a corruption complaint.
