MAN FACES TRIAL FOLLOWING FORCED CONFESSION
Businessman Wu Wai Sing,
a 54-year-old US national of
Hong Kong residency, was reportedly tortured
to make him confess. He has reportedly told his lawyers that he is "losing
hope" and cannot stand up to the torture and other ill-treatment any longer. This is a case we have dealt with in the past, but obviously to no success. Please act. Again Google drives requires a download.
