Last edited: 2026-07-27
In the case where former national handball player Ch'en Ching-kai was wrongfully convicted by the courts for feigning blindness to commit insurance fraud, Ch'en reported to the Enforcement Division of the Kaohsiung District Prosecutors Office today (June 14) accompanied by his defense attorneys.
His defense attorneys filed an on-the-spot motion with the executive prosecutor requesting permission to postpone the execution or commute the sentence to a fine. After carefully considering Ch'en's physical condition and the various special factors of this case, the executive prosecutor concluded that postponing the execution was the preferable course of action.
Ch'en and his legal team will continue to persevere in seeking vindication for this case.
