After the coup, the three men implicated in the hold-up, made a successful get-away in the direc- tion of Kowloon.

On the main road, one and a quarter miles from the junction of Laichikok Road, he had slowed.. down, and what happened after- wards has been detalled by Mr. Nicholls in his statement to the Police.
He says that three Chinese ap peared down the hillside and walked ncross the road to where he and his companion had stopped. They were completely surprised by the men holding revolvers to their heads, and after being warned, mado no resistance when being robbed of their jawellery.
