“柯文哲在地下候审室过夜”，台北地方法院预计今晚召开羁押庭审理

柯文哲涉嫌贪污受贿，台北地方法院将裁定是否羁押

8月31日，台北地检署因涉嫌贪污、违背职务受贿等罪名，申请将台湾地区民众党主席柯文哲羁押禁见。据报道，柯文哲已于当晚被送往台北地方法院地下候审室过夜，预计法院将在9月1日晚间开庭。

台北地方法院于9月1日上午召开阅卷庭，由检察官说明限制阅卷的理由，并由法官确认阅卷范围。辩护律师随后进行阅卷，并与柯文哲和另一名被告、台北前副市长彭振声交换意见。预计台北地方法院将在1日晚上8时召开羁押庭，裁定是否要将柯文哲和彭振声羁押禁见。

候审室条件简陋，面积大约为3至5坪，配有蹲式马桶但无法自行冲水，房间铺设了木地板并配备了折叠床。尽管2017年曾进行过改造，但候审室仍被视为像“地牢”一样的地方，没有人愿意在该处过夜。

除了此次案件，柯文哲还身陷政治献金风波以及被曝用选举补助款购买办公室等争议。面对质疑，柯文哲召开记者会鞠躬道歉，并宣布向民众党请假3个月，静待党内调查。

此次事件对柯文哲及民众党造成重大冲击，国民党和民众党的“蓝白合作”本是唯一能制衡民进党的力量，但如今民众党党内大乱，在野力量被撕裂，后续发展将牵动台湾地区未来政局。文章呼吁赖清德要小心节制权力，让司法公平公正审理，避免用司法斗争打击在野党。

Ke Wen-zhe Suspected of Corruption and Bribery, Taipei district court to Rule on Detention

On August 31st, the Taipei District Prosecutors Office applied for the detention of Ke Wen-zhe, the chairman of the Taiwan People's Party, due to suspicion of corruption, acceptance of bribes in violation of his duties, and other charges. according to reports, Ke Wen-zhe was taken to the underground waiting room of the Taipei District Court overnight and is expected to appear in court in the evening of September 1st.

The Taipei District Court held a hearing on the morning of September 1st to review the case files, with the prosecutor explaining the reasons for restricting access to the files and the judge confirming the scope of the review. The defense lawyer then reviewed the files and exchanged opinions with Ke Wen-zhe and another defendant, Peng Zhen-sheng, the former deputy mayor of Taipei. The Taipei District Court is expected to hold a detention hearing at 8 pm on the 1st to decide whether to detain Ke Wen-zhe and Peng Zhen-sheng.

The waiting room is spartan, with an area of approximately 3 to 5 ping (1 ping is about 3.3 square meters), equipped with a squat toilet that cannot be flushed, a wooden floor, and a folding bed. Although renovations were made in 2017, the waiting room is still regarded as a place like a "dungeon," where no one wants to spend the night.

Apart from this case, Ke Wen-zhe is also embroiled in controversies such as political donations and allegations of using election subsidies to purchase an office. Facing质疑, Ke Wen-zhe held a press conference to apologize and announced that he would take a three-month leave from the People's Party to await an internal investigation.

This incident has caused significant impact on Ke Wen-zhe and the People's Party. The "blue-white cooperation" between the Kuomintang and the People's Party was the only force that could balance the Democratic Progressive Party, but now the People's Party is in turmoil, and the opposition forces are fragmented. The subsequent developments will affect the future political situation in Taiwan. The article urges Lai Ching-te to exercise restraint in his power and ensure fair and impartial trials, avoiding the use of legal battles to attack opposition parties.
