The Taipei District Prosecutors Office's espionage investigation involving diabolo coach Lu Ji Xian took an unexpected turn when the Taipei District Court ruled there was a 'jurisdiction error' in the case and referred it to the High Court. This move prompted the prosecution and Guo Shuyao's brother, Guo Bo Ting, to file an appeal. The High Court overturned the ruling, emphasizing that the prosecution's focus was limited to 'organizational development,' pending further identification of whether the data involved was classified information.
