11 December 1967
I am writing to you at long last about the
petition of Sergeant Chu Leung against his
dismissal from the Hong Kong Police Force in 1962
(your Savingram No. 2740 of 24 November, 1966
refers). This is a very difficult case that has
causeû us much concern here.
The details will be available to you, but I
might briefly mention here the salient facts.
Sergeant Chu Leung was dismissed the Hong Kong
Police Force in 1962, after disciplinary
enquiries presided over by an assistant
Commissioner of Police, on evidence obtained
during the interrogation of four KIT agents.
It was known that information about Special Branch
activities against the KT was being leaked. The
four agents all implicated Sergeant Chu Leung.
The Disciplinary Tribunal found against him on
four of the nine charges. He accepted his
dismissal, returned his medals when called upon to
do so, and did not make any representations about
the decision until 1965, when he wrote to you
seeking reinstatement. You saw no grounds to
intervene. In August 1966 he addressed
representations to the Secretary of State for the
Colonies, copied to you and to Mr. Jenkin, MP.
