<\/p>\nTaipei Magistrates\u2018 Courts today pronounced a verdict. The judge sentenced Zhao Shaokang to imprisonment on the 55th, to be fined for a misdemeanor, suspended for 2 years, and to pay 50,000 yuan to the public treasury. Appealable.<\/p>\n
Zhao Shaokang, former chairman of Taiwan\u2018s \u201cZhong Guang\u201d, was accused of showing his ballots to the media on July 26, 2025, the day of the \u201cgrand strike\u201d voting day. He was charged with violating the \u201cstrike law\u201d by showing his ballots to the media and photographing them. Zhao Shaokang calmly faced the judicial prosecution process after committing the crime. He does have a repentant heart and promised not to commit it again. A lawyer asked the judge for a light sentence on Zhao Jian\u2018s behalf. The Taipei Magistrates\u2018 Courts today announced the verdict. The judge sentenced Zhao Shaokang to imprisonment for 55 days, a fine for a misdemeanor, probation for 2 years, and payment of 50,000 yuan to the public treasury. He may appeal.<\/p>\n

When Zhao Shaokang appeared in court the other day, he said that after showing the votes, he admitted to making a mistake and never denied it. He really didn\u2018t hear the election staff stop him. He checked with the media afterward, but the reporters didn\u2018t hear it either, and there were no media reports that the election staff had spoken out to stop him. Moreover, with his personality, if someone stopped him, he wouldn\u2018t not listen to advice.<\/p>\n
Zhao Shaokang also said that the prosecutor said he \u201cintentively\u201d and \u201ctwice\u201d showed votes. He served as a representative for many years. The so-called ban on showing votes was based on two reasons: fear of retaliation and election bribery. There was no need for him to deliberately show votes. Moreover, everyone knew his position, so there was no need to show votes.<\/p>\n
Zhao Shaokang said that the prosecution thought his post-crime attitude was not good, but that day at Taipei\u2018s Daan police station, he admitted to showing the ticket and asked the police to convey to the prosecutor that he would not be charged or that the prosecution punishment would be postponed. Zhao Shaokang said that this was the first time in his life that he had been charged, and he felt very sad, so he wanted to express his apology again.<\/p>\n
The public prosecutor said that Zhao Shaokang is a public figure, and showing votes will have a great impact. Moreover, Zhao Shaokang did not miss showing votes, so please ask the judge to give a suitable sentence.<\/p>\n
The prosecution charges that Zhao Shaokang received his impeachment ticket and completed the enclosing at polling station No. 581 at Taipei\u2018s Tai\u2018an Middle School at 9 a.m. on July 26, 2025. When he walked out of the enclosing station toward the voting box, he held the impeachment ticket horizontally in front of his chest and turned the two columns of \u201cAgree to impeachment\u201d and \u201cDisagree to impeachment\u201d toward the outside of his body, thus providing the enclosing content for media filming.<\/p>\n
Zhao Shaokang then placed the impeachment ticket down from his chest. The chief administrator surnamed Yang once again reminded him not to show the ticket. Zhao Shaokang lowered his head to examine the impeachment ticket in his hand. Once again, he remained motionless for the reporters to film before placing the impeachment ticket into the voting box.<\/p>\n
The prosecution concluded that Zhao Shaokang had shown the framed content to others twice in a row, and was suspected of violating the \u201cPublic Officer Election Removal Act\u201d. The court was requested to consider that Zhao Shaokang was a well-known public figure and deliberately violated the rules during the removal voting process, and sentenced him to a heavy penalty.<\/p>\n
