Former Wong Tai Sin District Councilor Tam Heung-man is suing a male resident of the Galaxy Heights estate for defamation in a civil case, which continued at the District Court today (13th). Tam Heung-man testified in court, stating that she had supported another resident in the estate election and did not support the defendant, and she believes the defendant was dissatisfied because of this. In addition, the defendant's side pointed out during cross-examination that in a statement Tam gave to the police in 2017, she mentioned that she believed the defendant "wanted to drive me, the chairman of the Owners' Committee, away," and that as the estate was about to enter a maintenance period, the defendant might want to benefit from it. However, Tam also stated at the time that this was purely personal suspicion and speculation; Tam agreed with this statement in court.
