2. The facts were, briefly, that on 13th August 1992 a bomb made out of a cut plastic Coca-Cola bottle packed with commercial explosives exploded in a car park in Park Tower, Causeway Bay. The bomb was attached to a car owned by Ho Kwok-leung who was saved from jury or death by the fact that he noticed smoke coming from the car when he arrived at it. He used a fire extinguisher and when it was emptied he left to collect another. At that moment, the bomb exploded.
