1. This is an appeal by way of a case stated against a decision of Permanent Magistrate Mr R.B. McNair who on 4th February 1999 acquitted the Respondent Lee Wai-man of an offence contrary to section 25(1) of the Organized and Serious Crimes Ordinance, Cap.455. His acquittal inevitably followed a ruling by the learned Magistrate that the evidence of Chan Tsz-kong ("PW1") in that trial, was inadmissible, there being no other evidence against him.
