A 19-year-old girl – diagnosed with a gender identity disorder, and said to have a tendency to dress like a male – pleaded guilty to stealing her brother’s identity card and using it to apply for a job.
Ng Chun-mei admitted three charges when she appeared at Eastern Magistracy on Friday – using an identity relating to another person, knowingly misleading a police officer and perverting the course of justice.
Ng, dressed in a T-shirt and jeans and accompanied by her mother, was remanded in custody.
Acting principal magistrate Douglas Yau Tak-hong adjourned sentencing to August 17, pending community and rehabilitation center reports.
