The prosecutor’s defense was successful! Penghu case of fraudulently claiming tens of millions of invoices: Soldiers posted bail of RMB 100,000 and were detained again

The Penghu case of fraudulently claiming tens of millions of invoices shocked Taiwan. A soldier surnamed Bao, who was originally on bail of NT$100,000, was ordered to be detained by the Penghu District Court today (30th) after a prosecutor from the Penghu District Prosecutor's Office protested. The case continued to snowball and four defendants were detained. There was a loophole in the electronic invoice redemption mechanism, and the prosecutors investigated and clarified the doubts.

The Penghu District Prosecutor's Office investigated the case of questionable invoices worth tens of millions of dollars. The prosecutor directed the Penghu County Government Police Department's Ma Public Police Division and the Criminal Police Brigade to investigate. It was recognized that the defendant surnamed Bao was also suspected of related crimes, and he applied to the Penghu District Court in Taiwan for a detention ban. However, the court found that detention was not necessary and ruled that a bail of NT$100,000 should be released.

After the prosecutor of the Penghu District Prosecutor's Office immediately filed a protest, the Kaohsiung Branch of the Taiwan High Court revoked the original ruling and sent it back to the Penghu District Court of Taiwan for a further ruling. Taiwan's Penghu District Court held a detention court on the afternoon of the 30th to interrogate the defendant surnamed Bao, and found that his criminal suspicion was serious and that there were reasons and necessity for detention, and ruled that detention was prohibited.

There are currently four defendants in the case, and the Penghu District Court ruled that they should not be detained. Two defendants surnamed Zhang and one defendant named Zhao served as drivers; and a soldier surnamed Bao was the one who provided the invoices. The prosecutors and police hope to use this as a breakthrough to trace the source of the person behind the scenes, and then collapse Taiwan's first case of fraudulently claiming invoices worth tens of millions. The Penghu District Prosecutor's Office and investigation team are currently actively clarifying relevant evidence. The Penghu District Prosecutor's Office calls on the public to abide by the law, not take chances, seek illegal benefits through unfair methods, and jointly maintain a fair and just social order.
