By Jason Pan / Staff reporterOutgoing Control Yuan member Chen Shih-meng (陳師孟) in a detailed post on his Pointed Pigtail (尖尾週記) blog on Saturday explained his reasons for resigning. Chen announced his resignation on Thursday, after Judicial Yuan President Hsu Tzong-li (許宗力) on Tuesday accused him of interfering in the judicial system. Hsu overly protected the judges, shielding them from investigations by the Control Yuan, Chen said. He resigned because he no longer knew why he was still fighting, and he could no longer push for judicial reform, Chen said. Separately yesterday, the Presidential Office said that the Control Yuan and Judicial Yuan would able to resolve any dispute based on the nation’s constitutional framework.
