Yunlinshan original constituency explodes with ghost population! Two people, the candidate and the stakeholder, are detained and prohibited from seeing them, and one person is restricted from residence.

The Yunlin County 8th Constituency (mountain aboriginal) candidate surnamed Cai was suspected of inviting voters from other counties and cities to Yunlin in exchange for cash to obtain voting rights with his mother and three stakers. He was investigated by the Yunlin Procuratorate. Among them, Cai, Zhang, and Li were detained. This morning, the Yunlin District Court held a detention court. The judge considered the evidence and ruled that Cai and Zhang were detained, while Li was restricted from residence and overseas travel, and was required to report regularly.

According to the prosecutor's investigation, Cai Nan suspected of asking his mother, Zhong Nu, and Zhang Nan to provide their household registration, and Li Nan found friends with mountain aboriginal status. From January to July this year, he invited 9 voters from Yilan, Nantou, Pingtung, Hsinchu, etc. in the name of "seeking support and moving to household registration to vote." Cai Nan moved to Yunlin, and used 5,000 to 20,000 yuan as consideration for future voting support. Two of them were even paid as temporary workers with a daily salary of 800 yuan to support the vote. In just a few months, Cai Nan gave out more than 70,000 yuan in cash, and brought back 16 people involved in the case yesterday.

After being interrogated by the prosecutor, Cai, Zhang and Li applied to the Yunlin District Court for detention and ban in violation of the election law. Their mother and daughter Zhong were both released on bail of 100,000 yuan. In addition, a voter named Fan was evasive in explaining the case and was told to pay bail of 10,000 yuan, while the others were released without bail.

The Yunlin District Court pointed out that Mr. Cai completely denied the crime, and was inconsistent with the testimonies of many people with migrant registration and campaign team members. Moreover, when he was arrested by the prosecutors, he delayed, contacted others, and deleted the conversation records on his mobile phone, etc., and considered it necessary to detain him and prohibit him from receiving communications; Although Zhang Nan confessed to the crime during custody interrogation, he denied it completely during the investigation. His confessions were inconsistent. He had known Cai Nan's family for more than 20 years and held important positions in Cai's father's company. He had a close relationship. There was a risk of collusion and destruction of evidence. Therefore, it was deemed necessary to detain and prohibit access to communications.

The Yunlin District Court stated that although Mr. Li was in danger of fleeing and colluding to destroy evidence, he generally confessed to the crime during the investigation. Although his confession was different from that of the candidate, it was consistent with relevant witnesses, and the possibility of collusion to destroy evidence had been reduced. It ruled that he would be restricted from residence for 8 months, and report to the police station in the jurisdiction before 17:00 every Friday. He was also prohibited from contacting accomplices and witnesses in the case, and was restricted from leaving the country and overseas for eight months. If he did not accept this ruling, he would file a protest within 10 days.

In response, Cai Nan's appointed lawyer stated that he would not let detention become a means to affect people's political participation and would file a protest.
