Outlining the facts of the case, Insa pector bfurphy said that the document in question was known as admission card or travelling, certificate issued by the Government of the Nether- lands. The person in possession of such card could leave Sumatra or any part of the Dutch Netherlands and return again. The object of such A card was to check Chinese coming into Dutch territory. The prosecution alleged that the document produced in Court was false insofar as the photo on it was not that of the complainant. Apart from this, the locument had expired sometime last year, and it was therefore useless to any body.

The complainant in this case had been in Sumatra for about five years and he had brother who working in Singapore. They both returned to China Rometime in February this year, and they cage to Hong Kong on the same boet. They stayed in defendant's boarding house for two days and then went back to the country. Sometime later they returned to Hongkong with view of going abroad. They went to defen- dant's boarding house where the com- plainant ascertained that he had not sufficient money to go abroad. His brother had enough money but he ro fused to go unless the complainant ac companied him. The complainant then returned to the country to get money. In the meantime his admission card or travelling certificate was being kept by the defendant. Complainant hand- ed it to him in the presence of his- brother.

Inspector Murphy concluded by saying that evidence would be called that the genuine document was handed to the clefendant by the complainant, and that the document produced in Court was not the one. Evidence would also be called to show that the fingerprinta on the false document was not that of the complainant's.

Evidence was then called in support of Inspector Murphy's statement after which the case was adjourned.
