Authorities evacuated some residents from a luxury residential complex after record rains caused a landslide. They are also investigating the possibility of illegal structures and occupation of government land.

Some residents at Redhill Peninsula – a luxury estate in Hong Kong’s Tai Tam district – had to be evacuated on Saturday after the landslide affected three houses sitting on a slope, Secretary for Development Bernadette Linn said at a news briefing.
