The Department of Justice has charged Ngong Ping 360 and the company's former director William Calderwood for negligence.

The Commerce & Economic Development Bureau today said the department initiated legal action against them after considering the investigation information about the Ngong Ping cable-car cabin dislodgement incident.

They were charged for negligently failing to provide to the company's officer(s) with necessary procedures and instructions to perform a brake test, and such act or omission was likely to render the ropeway unsafe for people in the vicinity of it.
