The accused LEUNG HUNG was employed by the Governor General’s Department, and worked as head coolie of the truck taking supplies into the Internment Camp. About December 1942, he was approached by SHINTON and asked to convey articles into the Internment Camp. He agreed to do this, although he knew that permission from Japanese officials was necessary. By June 43 he had taken several messages and sums of money addressed to BRADLEY through HALL, who was also in the Internment Camp. In April 43 he was asked by SHINTON to convey important documents through the same channels. He agreed to do this, and duly delivered the documents.
