The Taipei District Court yesterday sentenced two former aides of Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) lawmakers to prison for espionage and contravening the National Security Act (國家安全法).
Prosecutors in August last year charged former aides Lin Yung-ta (林雍達), Chen Wei-jen (陳惟仁) and Lee Yi-hsien (李易諴) with stealing classified materials from lawmakers at the legislature and passing them on to their Chinese handler, and for allegedly trying to hack into President Tsai Ing-wen’s (蔡英文) medical records.
