Man sentenced for criminally intimidating FEHD officer

     A man was sentenced by the Eastern Magistrates' Courts today (December 10) to a 12-month probation order for criminally intimidating a Food and Environmental Hygiene Department (FEHD) officer.
      
     The incident took place on January 30, 2018 when a health inspector was threatened by the 54-year-old man at the FEHD's Kwai Tsing District Environmental Hygiene Office regarding the inspection of his staff canteen. He was then charged by the Police according to the Crimes Ordinance (Chapter 200).
      
     "Criminal intimidation against law enforcement officers is wrong and inappropriate, and also carries legal consequences," an FEHD spokesman said.
      
     He reminded the public to co-operate with public officers in the execution of their duties.
