The sentence of Hong Kong pop singer Nicholas Tse was delayed Wednesday afternoon due to a report of bomb placed around the courthouse.
Police could not immediately confirm whether there had been a bomb found or just a report of one.
Tse was taken to the court earlier Wednesday to face sentencing on his conviction of conspiring to pervert the course of justice in a car accident in March, in which Tse allegedly allowed his chauffeur to claim he had been behind the wheel.
