A medical doctor who reported his father to police for criminal intimidation has now sought a court order to expel his parents' from their home in Lam Tin .
The case is the latest twist in the four-year battle between Dr Lam Chuen-lung and his parents following his father's conviction on a charge of criminal intimidation for confronting his son with a knife at his son's clinic in Lam Tin.
In June last year the father, Lam Sing-yin, 69, was given a five-month suspended jail term in Kwun Tong Court after his son reported the matter to police.
Lam Chuen-lung, who owns dozens of properties in Lam Tin, has now filed a writ in the High Court seeking an order compelling his mother, Tse Hau-woon, to vacate their co-owned flat at Sceneway Garden, Lam Tin.
Lam Chuen-lung claims the flat was bought entirely with his own money and has also asked the court to grant an order of sale for the flat, with all proceeds going to himself.
According to the writ, the doctor bought the flat for HK$4.2 million in 1998 with the help of HK$1.2 million he borrowed from his father.
He claimed that he had added his mother's name to the deed to make it easier to obtain a mortgage.
