Just another rant about the judiciary
Considering that former President Chen publicly admitted to wrongdoing and therefore resigned from the DPP, why is he being held without an indictment? The indictment should have been issued months ago, easily! Could you even imagine if Ma had been arrested during his mayoral slush fund investigation — and before an indictment?
Chen’s arrest has shown Taiwan’s embarrasing lack of habeas corpus. Even if the majority of people on the street agree that the ex-president is guilty of doing something wrong and approve of him being locked up, it should be done through the proper channels. Since the proper channels weren’t followed, the legitimacy of this arrest is being called into question. Great job at discrediting yourself, judiciary.
