▲Zhai Benqiao suggested that Huang Guochang was the deputy mayor of Hsinchu City
The People’s Party mayor-elect of Hsinchu, Gao Hongan, was suspected of fraudulently receiving an assistant’s salary, and the prosecution ordered him released on 600,000 yuan bail, in violation of the Corruption Punishment Law. If Gao Hongan is found guilty in the first instance, the mayor of Hsinchu will be represented by the deputy mayor. Taipei city government municipal councilor Zhai Benqiao hinted yesterday (16) that former lawmaker Huang Guochang could be found.
According to Article 78 of the “Local Settlement Law”, the mayor is involved in a crime with a minimum sentence of more than 5 years. If he is detained or convicted in the first instance, he will be suspended by the central government and then replaced by the deputy mayor .Reintegration first.
Zhai Benqiao posted on Facebook yesterday that in order to make Ke Jianming, the Legislative Yuan head of the DPP, give up pursuing Gao Hongan, it is necessary to create a situation where “killing Gao Hongan” will make Ke Jianming worse than ” let Gao Hongan go”.
Zhai Benqiao said that if Gao Hongan was found guilty in the first instance, the deputy mayor of Hsinchu City would be the deputy mayor, so someone who was better at fraud investigation than Gao should be the deputy mayor. He believes Huang Guochang has this deterrent ability.
