Synopsis and Storyline of “The Trier of Fact”

Police inspector Ben Kwok is assigned to investigate and collect evidence against the Narcotics Bureau inspector Car Che, who's suspected of working with the triads. However, during his task, Ben bonds with Car while working together and sharing the same beliefs in justice. On the surface, it appears that Car used criminals to bring down a drug kingpin, but Ben discovers that Car used the drug sweep operation to save his mentor from being blackmailed. Even though Car's actions were done to protect the entire Hong Kong Police Force, Ben must also stay true to upholding the law and justice. This leads to a showdown between these two men and their different methods of justice.
