Why It Matters
Legislator Gao Jin Sumei's chief accountant Zhang Junjie jumped bail and absconded after being involved in a communist espionage case. The prosecutors, police, and coast patrol task force investigated his escape route and found that a specific gang arranged the connection behind the scenes and used existing smuggling channels to leave Taiwan.
Legislator Gao Jin Sumei's "big accountant" Zhang Junjie was implicated in a communist espionage case and escaped on bail. He smuggled out of Taiwan from Zhengbin Fishing Port in Keelung on the 28th of last month. Investigations by prosecutors, police, and coast guard task forces revealed that Zhang Junjie's entire escape route was arranged and used by specific gangs behind the scenes. The smuggling channel was also the smuggling route used by gangs in the past. They once tried to smuggle Zhang Junjie from Tainan for a price of 5 million yuan. However, the captain saw through Zhang Junjie's sensitive identity and did not dare to take the case. He directly kicked him off the ship. It was not until Chen Huating, a Chinese fisherman, that he did not know his identity, and the smuggling was successful.
The task force investigated and found that on September 6, Zhang Junjie first went to a coffee shop in Xindian District, New Taipei City, where he met his assistant Chen Junwei and handed over the flash drive. Then he went to Daan Forest Park to meet Bamboo Union Pampers Association Chen Weida. He destroyed his electronic bracelet in a public toilet and escaped. The two first took a taxi through Wanhua and Taoyuan areas. In the process, they also borrowed mobile phones from the driver and contacted the pick-up person to pick him up in Chiayi. The two parted ways in Chiayi.
After that, Zhang Junjie was assisted by his handlers to escape in Chiayi, Tainan, and Kaohsiung. He constantly changed cars, hid in the back of the car, and stayed in the car for no more than 2 days to create breakpoints in tracing and evade detection. At the same time, he was always ready to stow away. In order to avoid being smuggled in successfully, the Coast Guard carried out multiple inspections to deter fishing boats targeted in the southern region that might assist in stowaways, but to no avail.
When arranging stowaway arrangements, only the price will be informed, but the identity of the stowaway will not be informed. Therefore, Zhang Junjie once prepared to stowaway from Tainan at a price of 5 million yuan. However, when he boarded the ship, the captain saw his identity and changed his mind to avoid getting into trouble. He immediately changed his mind and kicked him off the ship.
Until the 28th of last month, Chinese people contacted Chen Huating, a Chinese fisherman on the "Man Ruifu No. 6" fishing boat, and asked to arrange Zhang Junjie's smuggling for a price of 500,000 yuan. He received an upfront deposit of 200,000 yuan. Because Chen Huating did not watch the news at ordinary times, he did not know his identity at all. After being led aboard as agreed, Zhang Junjie immediately went out to sea. As soon as Zhang Junjie got on the boat, he was led to lie down on the back deck of the fishing boat in a groove about half a person's height (originally stacked with debris), and covered with heavy fishing nets. This allowed him to successfully evade inspection by the coast guard and successfully abscond.
