  "account": "A former assistant warden at a care home in Hong Kong has been found guilty of raping an intellectually disabled resident five times in 2024, the High Court has ruled. Chung Pui-kei, now 38, worked at the Tai Po facility operated by the Hong Chi Association and was arrested after CCTV footage showed him bringing the victim, identified only as X, into his office and bedroom multiple times. The victim, aged 22 at the time, has a mild intellectual disability with the cognitive ability of a nine-year-old. Prosecutors allege Chung repeatedly threatened her silence during the assaults, despite her attempts to say \"no.\" Despite his claims of merely chatting and offering food, Chung was found guilty of five counts of rape, with the jury delivering a 6-1 majority vote on three charges and a unanimous decision on the remaining two. Judge Douglas Yau adjourned sentencing until October 14 to consider the defendant's mitigation, psychological evaluations, and the victim's trauma report. The Hong Chi Association, Hong Kong's largest NGO for people with intellectual disabilities, dismissed Chung following the conviction and launched an independent review of safety protocols in its facilities.",
