From the detailed judgement from Justice Chan, it is clear that this is not a case where the accused was acquitted because of some legal technicality but based on the merits of the defence’s argument.
While the public is focused on the false allegation of theft made by the Liew family, we have to also look at the troubling manner in how the investigation of the alleged offences and hearing of the charges were conducted.
Below are some of the troubling issues arising from since Dec 2016.
1. Police had issued an arrest warrant for Parti right after a police report was filed by Mr Liew. This is even before they got to verify whether the theft took place and confirm the items alleged to be stolen from the Liews.
It was only after the arrest of Parti on 2 Dec 2016 that the Investigating Officer (IO) paid the first visit to 49 Chancery Lane to take photos of the alleged stolen items. It is noted that not all the items were photographed.
2. After taking photos of the alleged stolen items, Police left the evidence with the Liews and recovered the items just a few days before the hearing in April 2018.
