KMT Chair Eric Chu Questioned Over Role in Suspected Illegal Assembly

Taiwan opposition leader and Kuomintang Chair Eric Chu was questioned by police after a protest outside the Taipei District Prosecutors Office. Chu, lawmaker Hsieh Lung-chieh, and KMT spokesperson Crystal Yang are accused of organizing an illegal assembly. The protest followed arrests of KMT members over alleged forged signatures on recall petitions. In Taiwan, protests near prosecutors' offices are banned, but Chu accuses the government of using legal tools to suppress political dissent. The government insists the investigations are impartial and based solely on the law.
