KMT stonewalls 李慶安 investigation for 300 days

Today marks the 300th day that KMT stonewalls citizens' request to investigate 李慶安's American citizenship. The judicial system is not wavering. It refused to do anything about 李慶安. 李慶安 is free to flee like 王又曾. Perhaps she is already out of the country.

Alan Mulcany: 陳雲南, 王清峰, 邱毅 should be charged for gross acts of interference

Alan Mulcany quotables:

The KMT believes that it is not accountable to anyone (except the Chinese Communist Party) and that it can get away with everything.

By now it should be crystal clear that KMT is the cancerous growth that must be eradicated from Taiwanese public life, but how do you achieve this?

the ruling KMT does not have the foggiest idea what [democratic] values are.

all Taiwanese who care one iota about their country's future had better learn from the Wild Strawberries, and fairly quickly.

Taiwan's Dreyfus Affair
Alan MULCANY
Swords, County Dublin, Ireland

Those familiar with French history might know that last century "l'Affaire Dreyfus" split French public opinion down the middle, just as the "l'Affaire Chen Shui-bian [陳水扁]" threatens to do in Taiwan nowadays.

First of all, whether I regard Chen as guilty or innocent of the charges brought against him is irrelevant right now. It is the procedure followed against Chen that matters.

The procedure that has been used might be normal in countries like China or North Korea, but should have no place in a democratic country like Taiwan claims to be.

I am no legal expert, but I do know that in countries like Ireland, Britain and most other European countries, any action aimed at influencing an upcoming trial is a criminal offense known as "Contempt of Court."

And if a prosecutor like Chen Yun-nan (陳雲南) were to engage in such an offense, aside from being immediately kicked out of the judiciary, he would have certainly been charged, along with Justice Minister Wang Ching-feng (王清峰), Legislator Chiu Yi (邱毅) and many other Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) officials for their gross acts of interference in the ongoing proceedings against Chen.

Going back to Captain Dreyfus, thankfully he was eventually found innocent and rightly so. But regarding Chen, despite the numerous "J'accuse [I accuse]" and "Nous accusons [we accuse]" launched by human rights campaigners and legal experts from the world over, I would not hold my breath.

For a start, France at that time was already a country somehow committed to democratic values, while the ruling KMT does not have the foggiest idea what such values are.

The KMT believes that it is not accountable to anyone (except the Chinese Communist Party) and that it can get away with everything.

By now it should be crystal clear that KMT is the cancerous growth that must be eradicated from Taiwanese public life, but how do you achieve this?

I have seen messages on pro-Taiwan discussion boards calling for things like revolution, civil war, and so on, but as an Irishman (whose country has gone through all this before), I don't agree.

I do believe that the Taiwanese can start their rebellion against the KMT dictatorship with a peaceful Gandhi-style campaign. The campaign would include extremely noisy protests and demonstrations, strikes (especially in companies owned by the KMT or pro-KMT business-folks), boycotts (like postal workers refusing to handle mail directed to the government or KMT offices, dock workers refusing to handle ships coming from or bound for China), blockades, occupations, refusals to pay taxes or fines and many more acts of civil disobedience. The list is endless.

I know that in Taiwan there is not the same militant and rebellious mentality as, say, in Greece, but for the sake of Taiwan's future, all Taiwanese who care one iota about their country's future had better learn from the Wild Strawberries, and fairly quickly.

Demand immediate arrest of 李慶安 before she flees like 王又曾 V

Here is a powerful article 台北地檢署為什麼不法辦重罪犯李慶安？

I would like 臺北地方法院檢察署 to answer this question, so I submitted (part of ) the article to 台灣台北地方法院檢察署 檢察長信箱. In seconds, I received an acknowledgment from 台灣台北地方法院檢察署 like this:

台北地檢署為什麼不法辦重罪犯李慶安？

當檢調單位對一個犯行明確、罪證確鑿的重刑犯睜一隻眼閉一隻眼，甚至在這個重刑犯有幾近百分之百潛逃海外的可能性，但卻沒有限制出境甚至連羈押都沒有的時候，人民自然會推想檢調單位有可能是在包庇這個重刑犯。

泛藍立委李慶安14年前入籍美國，之後在台灣違法連續參選並擔任市議員及立委。國籍法規定雙重國籍不能擔任公職，（2007年以前的）選罷法規定雙重國籍者不得參選，李慶安違法14年罪證已經很明確。

但是，台北地檢署為什麼好像突然間耳聾眼瞎，沒有看到這個重刑犯？

It gives clear-as-day-light answer to the question: 台北地檢署為什麼不法辦重罪犯李慶安？ Because she is a KMT person.

Why is the judicial system stalling all Ma's treason lawsuits?

Here are three treason cases against Ma. But there should be millions. Why is the judicial system stalling all Ma's treason lawsuits? Is it because treason is mickey mouse business? Or is it similar to this:

Ma's regime is a sham,including and particularly the judicial system III

A simple description of the system is

• KMT and the its government can violate law in any way they wish, however ridiculous or outrageous they may look. They are blind and deaf to any protests or requests for investigation.
  
• But people are supposed to abide by the law. People have been well trained to swallow in silence any injustice, considering it their fate.

Here is another absolutely outrageous episode 金恆煒 called 司法「馬戲團」in which KMT takes off any pretense of being legal:

台北地院淪為司法「馬戲團」！

金恆煒

「戲法人人會變，各有巧妙不同。」本年度台灣最大的「戲法」表演，非台北地院莫屬。巧妙處是把「扁案」的法官周占春變不見，端出來的果然是蔡守訓。魔術手法的秘訣在「虛者實之、實者虛之」，虛虛實實之間，完成偷天換日。

台北地院在「扁案」中公開亮出的「實」，就是所謂「法定法官原則」；這件漂亮大衣展示的是，「避免司法行政操弄承審法官人選，從而切斷間接控制審判之結果」。依此原則，周占春庭長已經抽中承審，而且也已經指示受命法官傳訊陳水扁擇日開庭了。依法言法，沒有更換的任何空間，否則不只違反「法定法官原則」，同時開了司法行政操弄的大門！

「窮則變」，台北地院於是玩了一套「協調併案」的把式。「庭長會議」認為，由庭長周占春審理的「洗錢」等四案與先前蔡守訓審理的「國務機要費」具有牽連關係，重點是「無法切割」；理由呢？「可能會出現歧異判決」，而且「浪費訴訟資源」；說得如此「法理」卻不含糊，就是幹掉周占春，讓屬意「人選」蔡守訓「入列」，完成「未竟」之業。這是不折不扣眩人耳目的「魔術手法」！

「無法切割」？庭長會議徵詢周占春，周表示，「扁案」中的國務機要費部分可以併案給蔡審理，其他的三案「仍應由他審理，但不受蔡守訓對國務機要費見解的拘束」，從周占春的言論中可以知道，「切割」不是問題，揭穿了「不能切割」的謊言。

至於指出「判決歧異」，更是無稽。難道我們的司法要退回到「一審終結」的封建王朝時代？現代司法之所以有一審、二審、三審的設計，所以有「再議」、「非常上訴」的救濟手段，甚至可以提請大法官釋憲，就是承認「審判歧異」的合法性與正當性；周占春法官強調「不受拘束」的理論基礎也在此。更重要的是互有牽連的「四案」，審理時依然是「一案」歸「一案」；所以祭出「歧異」的法寶，不過是讓司法行政之手有介入的空間而已。

其實台北地院耍弄的魔術中，最大的破綻就出在「假戲真做」到露餡。既然認定扁家「四案」不能夠「切割」，逕自可以併給蔡守訓，不必玩什麼「浪費訴訟資源」的「法定法官原則」，多此一舉的當眾「抽籤」！一旦「人選」不合「上意」，「原則」也好、「抽籤」也好，全部作廢，「庭長會議」才是硬裡子的真正「作手」，從而蔡守訓吃掉周占春，也保證了「更裁」與「判決」的最終結果。可悲的是，台北地院淪為「司法馬戲團」，代價卻是付出「司法獨立」的昂貴！（作者金恆煒，當代雜誌總編輯）
