Zhang Zhaoliang, a Taoyuan City Councillor from the Democratic Progressive Party, is facing allegations of corruption and meddling in construction code violations. Following a search by the Taoyuan District Prosecutors Office, he was summoned for questioning and subsequently detained due to substantial evidence indicating his involvement in illegal activities, including tampering with official documentation. Reports suggest Zhang attempted to influence officials to overlook violations at a construction site to facilitate the leasing of the property after completion. The court has deemed his potential to flee or destroy evidence significant, leading to his detention without visitation rights.
