Ko Wen-je's second detention was due to expire on April 1. The prosecutors argued that his personal secretary "Orange" Hsu Chih-yu was still on the run overseas and there was still a risk of collusion, so Ko Wen-je should continue to be detained. However, Ko Wen-je's lawyer made a surprising discovery. He cited the interrogation record of Xu Zhiyu's boyfriend "Lin Dingfeng" in court, saying that Orange returned to Taiwan for medical treatment due to toothache last year, and rushed back to Japan because she did not want to delay her studies. He refuted Ko Wen-je's accusation of instigating escape, and questioned the fact that the prosecutor had already obtained Orange's medical records but concealed them. In response to this, the Northern District Prosecutors Office said that Xu Zhiyu has been stranded abroad and has not returned yet. The prosecutors have determined that she has fled and issued a wanted notice in accordance with the law, which is "legally justified."
Li Yusheng, an attorney at Fidelity Law Offices, said that in general criminal cases, lawyers will advise defendants to focus their defense on the facts of the case and avoid using emotional words to avoid giving the judge a bad impression. However, during yesterday's court session, Ko Wen-je criticized the prosecutor in an emotional manner and made long speeches that had nothing to do with the facts of the case. This may be a strategy that Ko Wen-je discussed with his lawyers to create the image of him being persecuted.
