Police Constable was hurt in an explosion on hillside above Tai Wo Hau
Resettlement Estate in Tsuen Wan this Friday morning.
Constable was in Mobile Police Patrol sent to hillside to check out
reports that Red Flag had been seen there.
Its believed that explosion occurred when a concealed bomb was detonated
by a trip wire when constable stumbled over stone some distance from
Flag.
Constable suffered injuries to face and chest and is in hospital in good
condition.
Earlier in morning two objects were found hanging from railway bridge at
Boundary Street.
One of objects proved to be genuine bomb. Other was fake. Army
ammunition experts detonated live bomb on spot.
As result train services between Yaumatei and Shatin dis- rupted for one
hour (repeat one hour).
South China Morning Post quoting financial sources today reported that
Interbank loan interest rate dipped sharply to five and half (repeat
five and half) per cent per annum yesterday compared with six and
threequarter (repeat six and three- quarter) per cent earlier last month
when money was tight.
Paper quoted money brokers as saying transactions were active and there
were more lenders than borrowers recently.
