(Central News Agency reporter Shen Ru-feng, Yilan County, 30th) A man surnamed Chen in Yilan was allegedly confined and abused due to a drug dispute, left in critical condition at a hospital emergency room. Police subsequently arrested two suspects, and late last night, their detention was approved by the Yilan District Court on charges including attempted murder.
According to understanding, Mr. Chen was previously taken to a private residence, confined, and abused for a long time. On the afternoon of the 28th, he was abandoned at Luodong Bo'ai Hospital's emergency room in critical condition. Medical staff found multiple external injuries on his body, suspected to be caused by assault, and promptly reported it to the police.
The Yilan District Prosecutor's Office stated today that after reviewing communication records, the identities of the suspects were identified. Police arrested two defendants, surnamed Xu and Jian, on the evening of the 28th. After interrogation by the prosecutor last night, the two were found to be heavily involved in crimes such as illegal confinement and attempted murder, and there was a significant risk of flight and collusion to destroy evidence. Therefore, the prosecutor applied to the court for detention and prohibition of visitation and communication, which was granted. (Editor: Chang Cheng-chien) 1150430
