Dear In Stainton
With reference to your telephone enquiry of 28 April about Mr Christopher Clements who is under detention in Hong Kong, we have been informed that the solicitors acting for Mr Clements are Messrs Johnston, Stokes and Master.
I am afraid we do not have copies of any leaflet setting. out such legal aid as is available in liong Kong, but the Hong Kong Government say that Mr Clements will be entitled to apply for legal aid upon committal on a charge of murder.
Mr Clements was remanded in jail custody at the hearing on 26 April. The date for the committal proceedings
has not yet been set, but I will keep you informed of develop- ments.
Yours simedely
Peter Binatons
