False pretences
in second hearing
Tha caso against Lilly Stewart, alias' Choung Wai- har, Chang Shui-pun and Cheung Man-po, charged with: obtaining money by false pre- tonces, entered its second hearing before Mr. F. X. d'Almada at Kowloon yesterday. Defendants were alleged to, have obtained two: cheques for $6,001 cách on two different
occasions from complainants Thomas Kwong and J. K. Sun by falsely pretending that first defendant Lilly Stewart held a Crown lease on the site now known as the Rainbow Amuse-, ment Park at the junction of Lalchikok and Nathan Roads for a term of 75 years and was at the time in possession of a government licence to operate an amusement park on the site.
Defendants were represented br Mr. Brook Bernacchi, Instructed by Mr. F.D. Hammond, whit Mr. M.A. da Silva represented the prosecution..
J.K. Sun, the first prosecution witness called to the stand, said: that he first met second and third; defendants on January 14 at a
restaurant where they asked him to participate in the development of the park and that $105,000 would be required. Of this sum. $40,000 would be spent in cor- struction and the rest was to be given to first defendant as "tea money."
Power of attorney would be given complainants upon the frat payment of $20,000. A contract would be signed on the termina- tion of the power of attorney at the end of 10 days upon payment of $118,000, while the balance of $30,000 was to be paid in three instalments,
In return they (complainants?: would have control of the can- cern and Thomas Kwong was to be the chief manager. Com plainants were also to have power to grant concessions. Once the park. had storied they were to pay first defendant $10.000 while second and third deferidants were to receive 30 per cent of the pro- Ats.
