She said that she was not very familiar with the Prisoner and they only greeted each other when met. She claimed that she could hardly comment the Prisoner.
6. Tenant of No. 1219, Block 39, Sau Mou Ping Estate
(A 23-year-old young man) (neighbour of the Prisoner)
Both the Prisoner and his wife were bad-tempered, and they often quarrelled and fought each other, using wooden tools sometimes. The Prisoner always accused his wife of affairs with other men and his wife often complained his giving little money for family expenses. The Prisoner was not observed to have any special hobbies. Although the Prisoner could not be considered a trouble-maker in the neighbourhood, he was also not a very friendly type of person.
INTERVIEW WITH THE PRISONER
The Prisoner was interviewed at the Stanley Prison on 3rd May, 1975. He maintained that he was innocent in this incident. He said that he had been a law-abiding citizen ever since his arrival to Hong Kong in 1962. He did not seem to have any insight into his behaviour which led to conflict with the law.

SUMMARY
The Prisoner had received only little education at his native place. This together with his questionable temper probably had caused him marital conflicts with his wife and also made him an unpopular person among the fellow fruit hawkers in Kwun Tong. His unpopularity in the area and the inevitable disputes between him, and other hawkers resulted from the competition in their hawking business may have some bearings on this offence.
