Summary

One of the operators of the Hongkong Amusements Limited, who together with others recently resigned their employment, was this morning charged at the instance of Mr. Stevens, the Secretary of the Company, with entering the premises of the Tai Yat (Number One) Cinema at Yaumati with burglarious intent. It is alleged that out of spite in consequence of the acceptance of his resignation, he cut the electric wires giving current to the theatre, and this charge which was denied, on behalf of the defendant by Mr. Nash, was brought by Mr. Woo, for the prosecution.
