Recently, there have been many signs that the murder suspect and Hong Kong man Chen Tongjia intends to come to Taiwan to surrender, but Guan Haoming, the general secretary of the Hong Kong Anglican Church, who helped him , went to the Taiwan office in Hong Kong yesterday afternoon. It was suspected that he had applied for a visa, but was denied. In this regard, the Vice President and Speaker of the Mainland Affairs Council, Qiu Chuizheng Jin (15), noted that the Shilin District Prosecutor’s Office received a request from an appointed lawyer. The case has entered a new stage. Chen suspects there is no visa issue, but the Hong Kong and Taiwanese governments should sit down and discuss practical details, such as how to get people involved and the relevant evidence. Regarding Guan Haoming’s rejection, Qiu Chuizheng emphasized that he is a pastor and not a lawyer. How can he accept the appointment? Furthermore, it is impossible for an alleged murderer to come to Taiwan “freely”.
Chen Tongjia killed his girlfriend Pan Xiaoying in Taiwan two years ago. After returning to Hong Kong, he was jailed for money laundering. He was released in October last year. It was reported from Hong Kong that he promised to surrender (surrender) to Taiwan to face justice. The Mainland Affairs Commission has emphasized that Taiwan and Hong Kong Police contacted each other in late October last year. Relevant information was also transferred to Chen Tongjia through the Hong Kong Police through the Taiwan Criminal Bureau. The phone number is 02-27535440. However, it has been a year since Chen Tongjia was released from prison and he has not yet arrived in Taiwan.
Qiu Chuizheng claimed that we made three requests for mutual legal assistance to the Hong Kong government in 2018, but none of them went through. However, the case was based on factual investigations. The Hong Kong government should respond pragmatically to the “mutual legal assistance requests” we made earlier and help soon Bring the suspicion to justice and achieve judicial justice in concrete terms. However, because the jurisdiction and related public powers of Taiwan and Hong Kong are involved, the relevant legal procedures must be completed first, and the governments of Taiwan and Hong Kong must negotiate the relevant matters before they can come to Taiwan.
Qiu Chuizheng emphasized that in this case, the Hong Kong government has a responsibility and an obligation to play a more active role in accordance with law and reason, and once again called on both governments to “sit down and have a good talk. “. We request that the Hong Kong side take due responsibility for the case and discuss the solution with us as soon as possible. It may not be necessary to sign a mutual legal assistance agreement to resolve the problem.
Chen Tongjia is reported to be able to come to Taiwan to surrender in various ways, and even take a China Airlines or Cathay Pacific flight to Taiwan, they all have different handling methods. After all, he is a suspected murderer, and it is impossible to let him come to Taiwan “freely”. As to whether Guan Haoming can accompany him to Taiwan during the epidemic, it is now another question.
