柯文哲因涉嫌京华城容积率弊案被台北地检署逮捕,他声称逮捕程序有误并提出提审。台北地方法院裁定逮捕合法,驳回提审。柯文哲律师表示考虑提出抗告。这是台湾政坛史上首次有主要政党的负责人被检方逮捕的纪录。事件发生前,柯文哲已因政治献金争议暂时卸下民众党主席职务,并将面临党内调查。目前,丑闻已严重打击了柯文哲及其民众党的支持率。
Original Title: 台湾民众党主席柯文哲不服逮捕 法院驳回提审
Summary: Taiwan People’s Party Chairman Ko Wen-je was arrested by the Taipei District Prosecutors Office for his alleged involvement in the Jinghua City floor area ratio scandal. He claimed the arrest procedure was flawed and filed a petition for a review. The Taipei District Court ruled that the arrest was legal and dismissed the petition. Ko Wen-je’s lawyer said they are considering appealing the decision. This is the first time in Taiwan’s political history that the head of a major political party has been arrested by prosecutors. Before the incident, Ko Wen-je had already temporarily stepped down as chairman of the Taiwan People’s Party due to a political donation controversy and will face an internal party investigation. Currently, the scandal has severely damaged Ko Wen-je’s and his Taiwan People’s Party’s approval ratings.
