On their way back to Tainan, they will stop to call for the release of Chiayi County Commissioner Chen Ming-wen who was recently remanded in custody with no visitation rights on suspicion of corruption.
Also yesterday, Chiayi’s chief prosecutor urged Chen Ming-wen yesterday to maintain his health as the county chief’s hunger strike entered its seventh day.
Horng Guang-sheng, chief prosecutor of the Chiayi District Prosecutors Office, appealed to Chen Ming-wen “to take care of himself” so that he will be able to defend himself to the best of his ability against the charges he is facing.
Chen Ming-wen has remained in custody with no visitation rights since Oct. 28 after being arrested on suspicion of leaking insider information in the bidding process for a sewer project in the southern county’s Minhsiung Township (民雄).
