Transcript of the Audio Recording
of the Sentence in the above Case
---------------------------------
COURT: The accused, you have pleaded guilty to one count of trafficking in dangerous drugs. The quantity of drugs involved is 1,538.06 grammes of a mixture containing 528.14 grammes of heroin hydrochloride.
These drugs were imported into Hong Kong and therefore calls for enhancement. All things considered, I adopt a starting point of 18 and a half years’ imprisonment, enhance it by one year, totalling 19 and a half years.
Having taken into account everything urged in mitigation on your behalf, there is really no other real mitigation apart from your early plea of guilty, for which I shall give you the full one-third discount; reducing the starting point to one of 13 years’ imprisonment.
You are therefore sentenced to 13 years’ imprisonment.
