The Taipei District Prosecutor's Office today directed a search to bring the owner of the ship "Qian Chun 168", whose surname is briefly mentioned, for questioning to clarify the identity of the people who boarded the ship and whether anyone assisted in smuggling.
Zhang Junjie, an important staff member of Legislator Gao Jin Sumei, abandoned bail and absconded for nearly two months. Unexpectedly, he took a boat out of the country from Zhengbin Fishing Port in Keelung on October 28. The prosecutors suspected that Zhang Junjie first boarded the "Qian Chun No. 168" and then boarded the "Man Ruifu No. 6" fishing boat to escape. The owner of the "Qian" ship, whose abbreviated surname is now transferred to the Taipei District Prosecutor's Office for further questioning. It is understood that Jian Nan did not answer all questions during the interrogation. Prosecutor Lin Xiucong ordered that those suspected of obstructing official business, hiding criminals, and violating the entry-exit and immigration laws should be returned without bail, and their residence was restricted.
After receiving information that Zhang Junjie was suspected of going to sea from Keelung, the prosecutors urgently checked the Zhengbin Fishing Port surveillance camera, compared the boarding personnel one by one, and found a man with a similar stature to Zhang boarding the "Qianchun 168". However, the owner of the ship named Jian denied any knowledge during the investigation and said that the ship did not go to sea that night. The prosecutors suspected that Zhang might have boarded the "Qian" first and then transferred to the "Manruifu No. 6" docked nearby to confuse the direction of the investigation.
The investigation found that Zhang Junjie has been engaged in exchanges with China for many years. He once served as the president of the Xia Chao Federation, the secretary-general of the China Unification Alliance, and the executive director of the Aboriginal Tribe Working Team. After entering the Gaojin Congress Office, he was responsible for long-term trips to China and related activities. He participated in many exchanges in Beijing, Yunnan and other places, and his contact level included the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council and China’s ethnic affairs units. After the 2009 August 8 typhoon, Gao Jin went to Beijing and was received by Hu Jintao, then Chinese President. Zhang Junjie served as the office director at the time and was also long-term involved in the operation of multi-ethnic associations that accepted Chinese aid funds.
Zhang Junjie's eldest daughter Zhang Jiaqi has lived in Beijing for a long time and was also sued for allegedly serving as a head assistant; his eldest son-in-law is the well-known music producer Yuichi Arai. He studied at the Central Conservatory of Music in Beijing and has lived in Beijing for many years. He has been active in the Chinese music circle for a long time. He has collaborated with singers such as Li Ronghao and Yi Yang Qianxi, and won the Golden Melody Award for Best Album Producer twice.
Zhang Junjie was sentenced to more than 16 years in prison for corruption. The Taipei District Court originally ordered him to post a bail of 10 million yuan and be monitored by technological equipment. However, he absconded after destroying an electronic bracelet in Daan Forest Park on September 6 and was wanted. The prosecutors and police are continuing to trace his hiding and connection network, and the entire case is being expanded and clarified.
