The Hearing Working Group moved very quickly, issuing its decision and findings on Ling Jing that very day.
Ling Jing's shooting during the BNC Bank robbery was an on-the-spot response in the normal execution of his duties.
There had been nothing wrong with his actions; he had received a Disciplinary Demerit only because he had accidentally killed a hostage.
Beyond that, he bore no further responsibility.
When the Hearing Working Group issued its findings, it also presented the evidence supplied by Ye Tao, the key figure.
This included his testimony and the corresponding interview record.
Naturally, none of this contained anything about the methods Chow Sing Sing had used.
Knowing full well that Ye Tao's evidence would be crucial to the Police Force's decision on Ling Jing, how could he possibly have failed to make thorough preparations?
Every piece of information from the scene that should have been recorded was there, while nothing that should not have appeared was present.
In short, Ye Tao's evidence was entirely lawful and compliant.
Neither the Department of Justice nor the court could possibly find any flaws in it.
As for compensation from BNC Bank's major shareholder and the outcome of Fang Keming's disciplinary case, Zhou Quan paid little further attention.
The former was the responsibility of the relevant Police Force departments, while Mok Kam-chuen would handle the latter properly.
Sir Mok might have been amiable in his daily dealings, always greeting people with a radiant smile.
But his professional competence was beyond question.
Whatever Fang Keming's eventual reaction might be, it was no longer worth Zhou Quan's continued attention.
After all, Zhou Quan had already made the necessary preparations. What happened next depended entirely on Fang Keming's own choices.
Being transferred to an undemanding civilian department did not mean Fang Keming's police career
