Hui and the Kwok brothers were arrested by the city's graft- buster independent Commission against Corruption in March 2012. The three were among five people charged with eight offences including misconduct in public office and furnishing false information. All pleaded not guilty.
The trial is expected to last for 70 days, with evidence of more than 80 prosecution witnesses.
