It is an offence for a person who, by any means calculated to choke, suffocate, or strangle, attempts to render any other person insensible, unconscious, or incapable of resistance, with intent in any of such cases thereby to enable himself or any other person to commit, or with intent in any of such cases thereby to assist any other person in committing, any indictable offence: Offences Against the Person Ordinance (Cap 212) s 20. For example, the offence of raping a person while she is unconscious under the influence of sedative drugs at the time of the act and unable to give consent: HKSAR v Cheung Lai Man (CACC 533/2002, unreported). In tort, where damages resulted from an insane person’s sudden and unexpected unconsciousness, he may be freed from liability on the ground that he was not capable of taking due care: Waugh v James K Allan Ltd [1964] 2 Lloyd’s Rep 1.
