The Shatin Court postponed for a week the sentencing of a Filipina who had earlier pleaded guilty to conspiracy to defraud the Immigration Department, when she did not show up Friday (March 21) due to illness.
Acting Principal Magistrate Cheang Kei-hong rescheduled to
March 28 the sentencing of Mariclaire Calagui, 41 years old, but required her
to present a medical certificate.

Magistrate Cheang extended her
$1,000 bail on the same terms.
According to the police complaint,
Calagui conspired with Lee Ka Ming and Kathleen Emily Vizcarra to defraud the Director
of Immigration and his officers by entering into a fake employment contract to
work as a domestic helper of Lee.

The fraud induced the Immigration
officers “to act contrary to their public duty, namely to grant you permission
to remain in Hong Kong under circumstances in which they would not otherwise
have granted.”
Vizcarra is herself facing a
similar case in District Court for her part as agent in the alleged conspiracy
that involved Calagui and several others.

Magistrate Cheang also scheduled the sentencing of another Filipina for April 17 at Shatin Court for "making a false representation to an Immigration Officer lawfully acting under or in the execution of Part III of the Immigration Ordinance."
The charge against Melinda David, 42 years old, arose from her telling the officer on Oct 2, 2023 that she would work for a certain employer "knowing the same to be false o not believing the same ti be true...."
She was set free on bail of $1,000..jpg) |
