Instead of continuing, along Des Voeux Road, the shroff and small boy went along Wing Lok Street and turned to the right down Rumsey Street. When near a latrine in the latter street, the pair were set upon by three men. Two seized the shroff and one the small boy. They were taken icside the latrine, where the men relieved the shroff of the $2,700) and then ran away.
