選前倒數時刻,新竹縣竹東鎮民代表會今(12)日傳出被搜索。新竹地檢署指揮新北市和苗栗縣警方,今天上午持搜索票前往竹東鎮民代表會,搜索主席、副主席等辦公室,外傳疑似涉及社團補助的賄選但檢方未證實,表示全案偵查中,基於偵查不公開原則,相關案情細節暫不便說明。
竹東鎮民代表會主席范國威獲國民黨提名轉戰投入竹東鎮長選舉;無黨籍副主席蕭文甫則是爭取連任竹東鎮民代表。
據了解,新竹地檢署接獲情資展開偵查,搜索案疑似與某社團有關。該社團成員近日晚間在一家餐廳聚會,席開7、8桌。席間,疑似有提及這次選舉、餐會補助來源等,並懇請成員支持特定候選人,甚至大喊「當選」。因該社團活動有獲竹東鎮民代表會補助,被視為疑似涉及賄選,但相關傳言未獲新竹地檢署證實。
