Rex vs. Hau Kang Po

Statement made by the accused to the Police in answer to

to the charge.

51

(If) I did not cut him to death, he would have cut

me to death. Either (he or I) would die. Formerly I remitted money from abroad back to him

to redeem the fielda in order to meet the needs of

the family. Now he wants to take possession of the fields. (He) changed the land deeds into his own

name and said that his elder brother had no share.

Therefore there was trouble.
