Fetish Fashion owner Brenda Scofield, 54, and manager Loretta Mui Shuk-han, 40, each deny one count of keeping a disorderly house and six of aiding and abetting an objectionable performance between March 1 and August 12 last year at the shop. It is the first time the charges have been aired for 20 years.

Scofield's husband, businessman Laurence Richard Scofield, 48, denies one charge of aiding and abetting in keeping the house and six of aiding and abetting an objectionable performance.

He was cleared of one count of obstructing police inspector Yiu Kit-yee as the prosecution offered no evidence.

Deputy Director of Public Prosecutions John Reading, SC, told Western Court yesterday that undercover police officers bought tickets to three sex parties at Fetish Fashion in Cochrane Street, Central.

The first, dubbed 'After Office Delight', was scheduled for February but cancelled. Two officers had bought tickets for $1,500 and were told the show was only open to select customers.

Mr Reading said the second show, 'Mixed Play', was attended by two undercover officers on March 10.
