COURT: Ng Kwok-leung, I have taken into account everything urged on your behalf.
You stand convicted of one charge of trafficking in a dangerous drug. You have pleaded guilty at the Magistrates Court and you have been committed to this court for sentence.
The quantity of drugs involved is 27.85 grammes of a crystalline solid containing 27.56 grammes of methamphetamine hydrochloride.
All things considered, I adopt a starting point of 8 years’ imprisonment.
Having taken into account everything urged on your behalf, including your plea of guilty and your co-operation with the police, I shall give you the full one-third discount, thereby reducing the starting point to one of 5 years and 4 months’ imprisonment.
You are therefore sentenced to 5 years and 4 months’ imprisonment.
