A Filipina pleaded guilty today at Shatin Court to conspiring with persons unknown to defraud the Immigration director into giving her an employment visa by submitting a fake contract, but her sentencing was postponed to December 8.

Josephine Soberano, 38 years old, was thus freed on bail of $1,000  by Magistrate Raymond Wong, with conditions such as not leaving Hong Kong until the next hearing.

Soberano was charged with conspiracy to defraud, contrary to Common Law and sections 2(3) and 4(2) of the Criminal Jurisdiction Ordinance  and punishable under section 159C(6) of the Crimes Ordinance.

The conspiracy took place between an unknown day in April 2022 and May 21, 2023.

She allegedly conspired, with other persons unknown, to defraud the Director of Immigration and his officers by making it appear that she would work for Li Sin Ting as a domestic helper.

She allegedly did this by “dishonestly and falsely representing to the Director and his officers that your entries to and remaining in Hong Kong were for the purpose of working as a domestic helper of Li Sin Ting and thereby to induce the said Director and his officers to act contrary to their public duty, namely to grant permission to enter and remain in Hong Kong under circumstances which they would not otherwise have granted.”
