A Hong Kong lawyer has admitted to having sex with a 12-year-old girl twice and taking more than 200 photographs and videos of the illegal acts.

The District Court heard on Monday that Kelvin Luk Kin-ting, 40, befriended the Form One pupil on dating app “Heymandi” and claimed that he was around 28 to 29 years old when they first met on March 4 last year.

Luk, formerly a consultant at local law firm HY Leung & Co LLP, kissed the girl at a Ma Wan beach that morning before taking her to his high-rise flat at the Park Island residential complex to have sex with her.

They met at the same flat again on March 28, during which the girl agreed to have sex with him after drinking a few cans of beer.

The court heard that the lawyer upset the girl by removing his condom midway through intercourse, but decided to continue with the act anyway.
