Abstract

Hong Kong businessman Harry Lam sat in the Lok Yu Tea House in central Hong Kong finishing his breakfast one Saturday in late November 2002. His table was at the rear of the downstairs part of the Lok Yu. At a table near to the door, another man was also finishing his breakfast. He paid for it, got up, walked calmly over to Harry Lam’s table, pulled out a handgun and shot the millionaire businessman in the head. A single bullet was fired and Lam was dead. The gunman then walked out of the restaurant, as calmly as when he’d paid for his breakfast.
