A self-proclaimed martial arts instructor has been denied bail after appearing in court in Sha Tin accused of molesting four women.
The 33-year-old security guard was not required to enter a plea during the hearing on Thursday.
Prosecutors alleged that he assaulted the women during video shoots he arranged in Sha Tin Park and outside the Yuen Wo Road Sports Centre.
The man was arrested at Wo Che Estate in Sha Tin on Tuesday.
The prosecutors told the court that they would like more time for the police to continue their investigation and that other alleged victims could be found.
The case was adjourned until July 9.
