A domestic worker has been charged with theft in Eastern Court Quarry Bay
C. Sedano, 41, was formally charged on Jan 16 before
Magistrate Peter Law.
The magistrate did not take a plea from the defendant and adjourned
the case to Feb 28 at the request of the prosecution.
Law also granted an application for bail by the defendant
after she was able to provide the court an address where she will be staying
while the case is being heard.
He ordered Sedeno to post bail of $1,500 for her temporary
release
Earlier, Law adjourned the hearing so Sedano could find a
place to stay and use as her contact address for the court. She managed to
obtain permission from an NGO to stay in its shelter for distressed migrants.
Sedano was accused of taking the merchandise from the Aeon
Store in Kornhill Plaza , Tai Koo Shing, Quarry Bay
A police report said the items she stole were one blue
Adidas jacket, one white New Balance shirt, two black Adidas hoodies, one
frozen fish fillet, two rolls of sushi, one pack of cooked food and two boxes
of milk, all belonging to Aeon Stores (HK) Co.
No estimate of the value of the goods was provided by the
police.
On Jan 15, another Filipina, J. Toquero, was fined $2,000
also in Eastern Court
