Hong Kong court jails triad-linked man 3 yrs for hammer attack; victim died of overdose

Mo Tai-fung, 42, was sentenced to 3 years and 2 months after pleading to a reduced charge for a hammer attack on an associate in Yau Ma Tei; the victim later died of an overdose, not the injuries. The case highlights prosecutorial discretion in Hong Kong courts, with the murder charge amended, but it is a routine criminal justice matter with no broader geopolitical or market implications.
