無黨籍苗栗縣竹南鎮民代表會主席何秀綿參選竹南鎮長,因涉嫌賄選被法院收押。今(4)日何秀綿競選總部成立,本人未能到場,不過苗栗縣長鍾東錦等地方藍營人士紛紛出席站台。鍾東錦並強調,何秀綿是被冤枉的,懇請鄉親團結支持到底。

何秀綿競選總部成立大會今天上午在照南國小分校預定地舉辦,包括鍾東錦、立委陳超明、縣議長李文斌、副議長張淑芬,以及竹南鎮長方進興、前縣長徐耀昌等地方人士出席力挺。由何秀綿女兒連紫昕代表母親,接受披掛綵帶,並接下吉祥物及戰旗。

請繼續往下閱讀...

鍾東錦致詞表示,今天特別請前縣長徐耀昌和立委陳超明2位先進到場,因為大家都知道,這2位先進也曾經被司法迫害,搞了很多年,但現在2人都判無罪。

鍾東錦說,老天爺跟何秀綿開了一個玩笑,「天上掉下來的禮物砸到了她」,其實這個案子,不管是從一些承辦的朋友,或詢問律師及司法界的朋友,大家都一致認定何秀綿是被冤枉的。

鍾東錦表示,他與陳超明、方進興、徐耀昌,以及李文斌、張淑芬,還有竹南在地的議員陳碧華、張佳玲、廖英利等人,決定全力支持何秀綿。

鍾東錦強調,不能讓這種不公不義的事情發生在竹南。據他了解,「那個沈老闆是每年的中秋節都買了禮物挨家挨戶地送,那個是他的習慣。何秀綿是在不對的時間走進去,就這樣子而已。」因此懇請鄉親團結支持到底。

鍾東錦並表示,何秀綿對竹南大小事務都關心,包括教育、托育政策及交通建設等。若何秀綿當選竹南鎮長,竹南將是「縣、鎮一家」,他也會全力支持竹南持續發展。

苗栗地檢察署接獲檢舉,何秀綿涉嫌發放市價約300元、內含茶葉及果乾的禮盒給多名選民進行賄選。檢警調上月23、24日發動兩波大規模搜索,傳喚29人到案。檢察官複訊後,認定何秀綿等8人涉犯投票行賄罪嫌重大,向法院聲請羈押禁見;苗栗地院於上月25日裁定何秀綿等7人羈押禁見。
