Lu also questioned the timing of the indictment, saying that she wanted to know why prosecutors picked the long Mid-Autumn Festival weekend to issue the indictments and why they delayed their press conference from 2pm to 7pm on Friday.

Asked whether she would take any political action following Yu's resignation, Lu said it was not necessary.

Commenting on Hsieh's remark that he would grant them amnesty if he were elected president, Lu said that would be too late.
