Three police officers have been charged for allegedly making up evidence in a drug possession case.

Sources said the three, aged between 31 and 44, are from the force's emergency unit.

They're alleged to have false claimed to have found drugs inside the pocket of a suspect whom they arrested in Wong Tai Sin two years ago.

But the suspect complained and said the drug was not actually found on him, triggering a probe.

The three were charged with “doing acts tending and intended to pervert the course of public justice”, and will be brought to the Kwun Tong court next Tuesday.
