Wei later met with Pendrew, revealing that he was possession of video footage of Ricky Wong and Vivienne Lu. Pendrew injected lethal chemicals into the IV and watched Po die. Pendrew visited Po in the hospital and explained that he planned to advance his career even further, hence decided to silence both Sonny Wo and Uncle Po to ensure no incriminating evidence against him. Uncle Po himself was eventually hospitalized due to serious wounds sustained after an attack at Winston's wedding. Pendrew shot a dead Triad member with Pang's gun, leaving it behind at the scene as hard evidence to incriminate and arrest Pang for murder. Pendrew talked and recreated the shootout with Shen. However, Pendrew met with Wei instead in the vicinity of a shootout. "I’m sure you’ve noticed that guns are something of a rarity in Hong Kong." ―PendrewĪfter retrieving a gun, specifically a pistol, belonging to a Triad member, Charlie Pang, which was given to him by Tiffany Kim, Wei contacted Raymond to hand in the gun as evidence for the case. After Wei left the room, Raymond, acting as Wei's handler, expressed doubt over Wei's ability to keep within the police procedure because of his history with the 18K Triad, but Pendrew assured Raymond that he was a suitable candidate. Pendrew assigned Wei to bring down their Chairman, Uncle Po, believing Wei to be perfect for the job. It was revealed that Wei is actually an undercover officer, and that his arrest was actually planned in order to make contact with Jackie Ma, in order to get close to Winston Chu, the leader of The Water Street Gang, a faction of the Sun On Yee. Pendrew requested Wei come over to Hong Kong for the assignment.Īfter Wei was arrested for being caught during a drug bust involving Naz and Four Finger Wu, Thomas and Raymond Mak entered the interrogation room. While searching for a new candidate, Pendrew came across the records of San Francisco Police Officer Wei Shen, who already had a distinguished career and aptitude in undercover work. Pendrew and Detective Raymond Mak assigned Charles Ho to go undercover into the Sun On Yee, however he failed in maintaining his cover and was subsequently tortured and murdered by the legendary enforcer Liu Shen Tong. As a result, Pendrew betrayed Po and intended to have him arrested and undo the Sun On Yee. Years later by 2010, Pendrew noticed a change within Sun On Yee, there was a clear indication of violent territorial disputes and even civil war between the two Sun On Yee factions. Pendrew was able to deflect suspicions by claiming that his meetings with Po were a means of utilizing an inside triad source, furthermore Pendrew's record was clean of evidence scandal or taking bribes. However, Pendrew was caught on surveillance and became a subject of internal affairs investigation. In return, Pendrew granted Po immunity, avoided deep investigation in Po's activities and occasionally gave him access to HKPD's senior personnel records. Po agreed to minimize the level of public violence in triad activities and would provide scapegoats to satisfy Pendrew's career, arrest and conviction record. Pendrew subsequently met with Po, now the Sun On Yee chairman, to discuss further plans.
Pendrew successfully arrested the Three Tigers, which earned him recognition and a career advancement from Interpol who promoted Pendrew to Superintendent. This would allow Po ascension to the position of Chairman and immunity for himself and Sonny Wo, a business partner and triad associate. The two struck another deal shortly after: Po would sell out the Three Tigers, the Sun On Yee leaders, to Pendrew to be arrested. Pendrew made the breakthrough due to his collaboration with triad red pole, David Wai Lin “Uncle” Po.
In 1981, Pendrew made a breakthrough in his career when he participated in police operation that led to the deaths of Big Fish Chu, Wilson “No Cash” Wang, and Fat Sammy Zhang. Thomas Pendrew joined the HKPD a few years before the Sino-British Joint Declaration, spending his entire career in a special branch anti- triad taskforce.
