(Xinhua)
Updated: 2008-09-05 22:45 TAIPEI - Prosecutors on Friday summoned former Taiwan leader Chen Shui-bian and former director of Taiwan's "Investigation Bureau" Yeh Sheng-mao for interrogation over missing documents allegedly implicating Chen in money-laundering. Yeh had been charged with hiding documents allegedly implicating Chen and his family in overseas money-laundering. He told a press conference on Tuesday that he had passed the two documents from the international anti-money-laundering organization Egmont Group to Chen, then Taiwan leader. When he asked about them in mid-August, Chen said they were missing. Chen's office later issued a statement, denying receiving such documents. The two were interrogated separately on Friday, according to the prosecutors' office. |
