| The District Court in Wanchai |
Two Filipinos, one charged with high-value theft and breach of deportation order; and another, for trafficking more than 15 kilos of marijuana, failed to enter their plea at the District Court today, after the judge noted that they had no lawyers to represent them.
Judge Clement Lee adjourned the cases of Cezar Raiz and Ma.
Cristina Fernandez to January 12 next year.
Lee said he has received letters from the Legal Aid that they
were still processing the two defendants’ applications for lawyers’ services.

Raiz (also known as Rodrigo C. Balajadia,
Mario Macaspac and Gregorio Nolasco) is charged with theft, contrary to section
9 of the Theft Ordinance, after he allegedly stole 22 pendants from Chow Tai
Fook Jewellery on Nathan Road, Mong Kok, on December 14, 2025.
His second charge, breach of deportation order, contrary to
section 43(1)(a) of the Immigration Ordinance, arose after investigators matched
his fingerprints with another man who was deported on February 14, 2015.
Fernandez, on the other hand, was charged with violating
section 4(1)(a) and (3) of the Dangerous Drugs Ordinance, after her arrest on October
18, 2025 at Customs Arrival Hall B, Passenger Terminal 1, Hong Kong
International Airport.
She was charged with trafficking in 15,437 gram of cannabis
in herbal form.
