Man admits underage sex and anal intercourse charges

Summary

A 20-year-old defendant admitted in the District Court on Thursday to three counts of unlawful sexual intercourse with a girl under 16 and one count of anal intercourse with a girl under 21. The case was adjourned to September 4 for reports from a detention centre, training centre and probation officer, and the defendant was remanded in custody

Key Points

  • Defendant Chan Chi-to, now 20, admitted offences said to have taken place between January 2024 and January 2025 in Fanling, Tin Shui Wai and Tuen Mun
  • The complainant, identified as X, was about 14 to 15 at the time and had been the defendant’s secondary school classmate before they became a couple in January 2024
  • The prosecution said their first sexual intercourse happened in a bathroom at the defendant’s Wing Ning Wai home in Fanling, without a condom, and lasted less than an hour
  • In April 2024, the defendant again had sex with X at the same Fanling address and then engaged in anal intercourse without a condom or lubricant, despite her initial refusal
  • After a January 2025 encounter in Tuen Mun, the defendant suggested emergency contraception; about a month later, X went to police fearing pregnancy, leading to medical examination and arrest

Why It Matters

The case has moved from investigation to conviction stage, with the court now seeking sentencing-related reports before deciding how to deal with the young defendant. It also shows how a complaint first triggered by pregnancy fears can uncover a wider pattern of alleged sexual offences involving an underage girl
