ROBBER JAILED FOR EIGHT YEARS
An unemployed youth was jailed for eight years by Mr. Commissioner
de Basto in the Supreme Court today for robbing a shop of a quantity of
jewellery worth about $570,000 in Kowloon late last year.
The defendant, Luk Keung, 18, was found guilty two weeks ago
when Mr. Commissioner de Basto deferred sentence until today pending reports
from a probation officer and training centre.
The defendant had two previous convictions including one of robbery.
