Police investigations revealed that during his escape, he repeatedly changed his appearance, used taxis to create obstacles in the investigation, and allegedly obtained vehicles with the assistance of Chou Huan-kai. Chou Huan-kai has been detained and held incommunicado by the court on suspicion of aiding and abetting the escape. Police are continuing their investigation into whether there are other accomplices or masterminds behind the scenes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-border-color has-text-color\" style=\"border-left-color:#b47a35;border-left-style:solid;border-left-width:5px;color:#17324d;margin-top:28px;margin-bottom:10px;padding-left:12px;font-size:clamp(14.082px, 0.88rem + ((1vw - 3.2px) * 0.54), 21px)\">Lawyer Li Yusheng explains<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Attorney Li Yusheng stated that the legal consequences of absconding on bail are not limited to the potential for forfeiture of the bail money; the court will also reassess the defendant&#039;s flight risk and likelihood of appearing in court. If the defendant has made prior arrangements to change clothes, switch modes of transportation, or seek assistance from others to hide, these specific actions may be considered by the court as constituting an act of flight, thereby affecting the subsequent determination of compulsory measures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether assisting a fugitive constitutes a crime depends on whether the assister was aware that the fugitive was evading legal proceedings, and on the specific nature of the assistance provided, such as providing vehicles, communication, or shelter. The court will determine this on a case-by-case basis.<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/fdlaw.com.tw\/en\/criminal\/\">Determination of detention in criminal cases<\/a><\/strong>The investigation will also take into account whether there is a risk of escape, destruction of evidence, or collusion with accomplices and witnesses, as well as the degree of suspicion of the crime and the progress of the case; the facts stated in the news reports should still be based on the investigation by the police and prosecutors and the rulings of the court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-background is-style-wide\" style=\"margin-top:28px;margin-bottom:20px;background-color:#d9d9d9;color:#d9d9d9\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;line-height:1.55\"><strong>Fuda Law Firm<\/strong><br>Address: 17th Floor, No. 180, Section 2, Dunhua South Road, Da'an District, Taipei Taiwan 106<br>Tel:<a href=\"tel:0277093611\">02-7709-3611<\/a><br>Line\uff1a<a href=\"https:\/\/line.me\/ti\/p\/@723pifhz\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">@fdlaw<\/a><br>Facebook:<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/fudalawyer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">FDLAW<\/a><br>website:<a href=\"https:\/\/fdlaw.com.tw\/en\/\">https:\/\/fdlaw.com.tw\/<\/a><br>e-mail:<a href=\"mailto:info@fdlaw.com.tw\">info@fdlaw.com.tw<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the corruption case involving Kao Chin Su-mei, Chang Chun-chieh, a key defendant, absconded after being released on bail, while Chou Huan-kai was detained for allegedly assisting in the escape.
