Taipei District Prosecutors' Office files an appeal against the ruling that found Cashbox KTV Chairman Lian Taisheng not guilty for the deadly fire in 2020, where 6 people died and 67 were injured due to malfunctioning safety equipment. The court acquitted Lian and others involved but sentenced some to probation and community service, prompting the prosecutors to appeal citing discrepancies in the judgment and error in facts. The incident revealed that crucial safety devices were switched off or dysfunctional during the fire, which lasted 3 and a half years in trial before the verdict.
