Sir,

Will the Government make a statement on

the gang robbery of a watch company in

Tsimshatsui on the evening of May 1,

1985 ?

The Police obtained information that an

armed robbery of the Time Watch Company at 54 Nathan

Road was being planned. While this information was

correct in essence, it was inaccurate and very scanty

in vital respects including when it was all going to

happen. This fact had a direct bearing on the events

that followed.
