A Hong Kong taxi driver has been sentenced to 200 hours of community service for molesting a female tourist earlier this year, in a case which has cast a shadow over a sector that authorities have targeted for its reputation of poor service.
Defendant Lui Kwan-ying was spared jail at Kowloon City Court on Wednesday at the recommendation of a probation officer, who found the 66-year-old showed remorse for the offence in what his lawyer described as a positive presentence assessment report.
