Lin Peixiang, Secretary General of the Kuomintang (KMT) faction, Xu Yuzhen, Chief Deputy Secretary, and "Legislator" Wang Hongwei attended a press conference this morning. They addressed the search of Gao Jinmei's home and office. Lin Peixiang pointed out that the KMT faction believes in the presumption of innocence, meaning that anyone is considered innocent until proven guilty. He expressed belief in Gao Jinmei's professionalism and integrity, as well as her long-term efforts in the "Legislative Yuan," and believed in her innocence. He also looked forward to a fair, impartial, and open judicial decision, rather than one with preconceived notions.
Lin Peixiang emphasized that he expects proof based on the presumption of innocence, not preconceived positions, nor assumptions based on political stances. At present, the investigation is still ongoing, and he respects the judiciary, expecting a fair, impartial, and open judgment that can convince the people of Taiwan.
Wang Hongwei stated that she hopes the judicial investigation process does not wrongly accuse or let the guilty go free, and that there should be no politically motivated case handling. In the past, she has seen situations where information was leaked and political influences were involved. Gao Jinmei should not be treated this way.
