HANDCUFFED FIREMAN'S LEAP TO DEATH
A verdict of "Suicido” was returned by a Coroner's jury (comprising two women and a man) at the conclusion of an inquiry, conducted by Mr. W. H. Latimer, at Kowloon yesterday into the death of Lau Wing, 36-year-old ox- fireman.
The jury added the follow- ing rider: "No blame is to be attached to the Police for this occurrence. Deceased having found that the revolver had been discovered wanted to take his own life and used his strength to do this rather than face a long period of imprison- meni."
