He was prosecuted under national security laws and for corruption and a harsh sentence was requested.
taiwan legislatorsing jin sumi The director of the office, Zhang Junjie, jumped bail due to his involvement in the collusive espionage case and absconded. It was recently confirmed that he was being smuggled out of the country on a fishing boat from Keelung. Taiwan’s High Prosecutors Office today (sixth) formally prosecuted Gao Jin Sumi, Zhang Junjie, office director Chen Zixuan and assistant Lin Yijun for violating the national security law to develop organizations for mainland government agencies and accepting bribes on duty under the Corruption Offenses Ordinance. The former two were sentenced to 14 and 15 years in prison respectively.
The lawsuit reported that between 2005 and 2016, Gao Jin Sumi and others integrated the tribal working group and the congressional team into an “ancestral land team” using a “one set of people, two signals” approach. Zhang and Chen led the team’s expeditions, political affairs, and liaison with indigenous rural tribes. Lin acted as Gao Jin and Zhang’s agent, traveling between both sides of the Taiwan Strait to receive and convey instructions to CCP officials.
On the surface, Zhang accepted funds donated by the CCP to build native tribes to enrich Gao Jin’s re-election resources; Superficially, he used the accounts of relatives and friends and other channels to send large sums of money into the country, more than 170 million yuan, and introduced CCP resources to develop organizations for public institutions in mainland China.
In addition, in accordance with CCP officials and the instructions sent by them, Gao Jin Sumei convened a delegation to the United Nations for an anti-Japanese press conference, interrogated the Japanese representative office on budget removal, and questioned the opposition to the arms purchase case. Through his position as a member of the Procedural Committee, he influenced the review of the bill and expressed support for the Committee on Curriculum Reform. These actions affected the conduct of deliberations in our country. He also protested and spoke out on important issues such as cross-strait and diplomacy, which caused great harm to the integrity of our sovereignty, national security and social stability.
Gao Jin Sumi has served as a legislator since 2002. Even though she knew the truth, she still used her powers as a legislator to collaborate with Zhang, Chen, and Lin to instruct CCP officials to serve as a procedure committee member in the Congress in order to influence deliberations, or to target bills such as “anti-weapons procurement” and “correcting the course.” As a reward for cooperating in speaking out and protesting on cross-Strait, diplomatic and other related issues, he accepted large amounts of money to operate the committee office and “ancestral land team”, accepted donations from the CCP to operate aboriginal tribal constituencies, and engaged in the crime of accepting bribes in office under the Corruption Ordinance.
Prosecutors believe that, as a legislator, Gao Jin Sumei actually conspired with Zhang Junjie and others to obtain resources and huge funds from foreign hostile forces to develop organizations for public institutions in mainland China in order to seek re-election and obtain illegal benefits. In particular, on critical issues such as anti-arms procurement, cross-strait, diplomacy and national defense, internal and external collusion to cooperate with the CCP’s voice has seriously endangered my country’s sovereignty integrity, national security and social stability. The situation is serious. During the investigation, he still shirks his responsibility and shows no remorse. Therefore he wants rigorous punishment of 14 years.
As for Zhang Junjie, who had fled the country, he conspired with Gao Jin and others to accept resources and large sums of money provided by hostile forces outside the country, develop organizations for public institutions in the mainland, arrange for relevant personnel to go to the mainland to receive training courses on united front work on the island, and infiltrate indigenous tribal areas in an effort to act as a “fifth column.” After the incident he absconded after getting bail. The wickedness was extremely serious, so he asked for 15 years in prison. Chen and Lin, who confessed during the investigation, have returned their criminal proceeds and made candid statements about Gao Jin and Zhang’s associates. It is recommended that the court imposes an appropriate sentence.
