MAN CALLED
"DEPRAVED BULLY"
A blow-by-blow account of the fight he claimed he had with Mr Arthur John Clifford, the barrister, in front of the Hongkong and Shang- hai Bank on August 4, was given in evidence by Quik Bah-chee, 30, of ' Singapore, at his murder trial at the Criminal Sessions this morning.
Quik, who spoke in English, told of how Mr Clifford swung him around from behind, shortly after he (accused) had pushed a woman aside with his hand in making his way through the afternoon crowd.
Telling about the fight, accused said that he eventually broke free from Mr Clifford's grasp and in doing so his right hand holding his knife about.
