A prisoner sentenced to life imprisonment was charged by the ICAC with offering a HK$300,000 bribe to a correctional services officer. The defendant was convicted of murder and sentenced to life imprisonment in July last year. The Correctional Services Department officers, including a Principal Officer in charge of the defendant's ward, would record the defendant's behaviors in her nursing notes which might be used for her psychiatric assessment. And on November 6, 2021, the defendant offered HK$300,000 to the above Principal Officer. Another aunt and uncle, Jim Siu-wai and Jim Chin-kui, were in hospital for three and ten days, respectively.
