Some Questions Concerning Prosecution In Taiwan

A while ago I was wondering how come some details have been provided to the public.

I didn’t write it was the fault of the prosecutors. But obviously, the source is the prosecutor offices.

Same questions could be asked now about the illegal behavior of the former president of Taiwan and the prosecutor offices in charge of the case(s).

Here is a letter sent to Taipei Times (By Sing Young in Taoyuan) and published today:

I am shocked by how forthcoming Taipei prosecutors have been in providing the public with details about an investigation that has just begun. This raises the following questions:

First, is it not illegal in Taiwan for a prosecutor to disclose private information about an ongoing case, in which charges have yet to be lain?

Second, did the Swiss Assistant Federal Prosecutor Graziella de Falco Haldemann agree to and authorize Taipei authorities to reveal that she is working with Taipei prosecutor Ching Chi-jen (慶啟人) on a “money laundering” case?

Third, has de Falco Haldemann actually stated that the case involves “money laundering” and did she permit the Taipei authorities to give her name as a source in the investigation?

It would be interesting to hear Ching’s and de Falco Haldemann’s answers to these questions.

Interesting letter, don’t you think so?
