2. On the 15th January 1969, upon an application of the defendant, an Order was made that the case be heard on a fixed date, namely, today. I am informed from the Bar, and I accept, that the reason for this application was that the defendant wished to call as a witness his brother, who is normally resident in the United States of America. The brother infrequently visits Hong Kong and it was desired to ensure that he should be available.
