Hong Kong photographer jailed for 8 weeks over indecent assault against model
By Fiona Chow
An award-winning Hong Kong photographer has been sentenced to eight weeks in prison for indecently assaulting a female model two years ago.
Eastern Court on Wednesday granted defendant Leung Chun-chung’s bail, which the 39-year-old applied for immediately after learning about his sentence. He is currently appealing against his conviction.
Leung was found guilty of pulling down the model’s dress and exposing her breasts at his Chai Wan studio on the night of December 16, 2022, an offence which he denied.
The victim testified that she trusted Leung as an award-winning photographer who had collaborated with celebrities in Hong Kong and followed his requests for posing.
She told the court that Leung asked her not to wear pasties to cover her nipples and made her take off her undergarment for “natural effect”.
The model recounted Leung suddenly pulled down her dress and exposed her breasts to the camera without her consent.
