1. The Plaintiff (“Dr Lee”) and the Defendant (“Mr Ho”) have both been members of the Shatin District Council (“the Council”) since 1994. Plainly, they have known each other for a long time. Sadly, a dispute has arisen between them arising out of something which Mr Ho had said during a meeting of the Council that was held on the 2.11.04 (“the Meeting”). In this action, Dr Lee sues Mr Ho for defamation in respect of what was said by Mr Ho about him at the Meeting.
