Jason Yang
Jason Yang is a lawyer who recently faced disciplinary action after his involvement in the rescue of a torture victim. Following the victim's abduction and subsequent release, Yang provided a statement to police that was later deemed misleading, as he concealed his prior relationship with one of the kidnappers. Despite his efforts to secure the victim's release, Yang's delayed amendment of his initial statement led to charges of misconduct by the New Zealand Law Society. The Lawyers and Conveyancers Disciplinary Tribunal ultimately recognized the extreme circumstances Yang faced, resulting in a three-month suspension and a censure, while acknowledging that he acted out of fear and confusion during a traumatic situation.
