Response to your request

While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance this Office does not have the information you have requested. 

However, you may wish to contact the Immigration Department of the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, as deportation cases fall under the jurisdiction of the host country as dictated by the country's immigration laws, and does not fall under the purview of the DFA.
