Liu Huan-yee, 43, will appear at Shatin Magistracy at 9:30 am tomorrow (Friday) on nine counts of false accounting.
The case arose from a corruption complaint. ICAC inquiries uncovered the alleged false accounting offences.
The charges alleged that Liu, in furnishing information for applications for reimbursement of expenses incurred at a number of activities organised by a working group of the Shatin DC, had dishonestly produced to Shatin DC and the Environmental Campaign C ommittee accounting documents which to her knowledge were false.

The alleged offences took place between November 2000 and July 2002.
Liu has been released on ICAC bail, pending her court appearance tomorrow.
