By Jason Pan / Staff reporterThe Supreme Court yesterday upheld an earlier ruling in which Taipei Prison inmate Kuo Yi-fan (郭亦凡) was sentenced to an addtional four years and six months in prison for stabbing his cellmate in the face and blinding him. After the initial ruling, Kuo kept appealing the decision, as he believed the sentence was too harsh. In another court ruling, the High Court on Tuesday upheld former Hsinchu City councilor Lee Huang Chin-yen’s (李黃錦燕) four-year sentence for corruption. Initially a district court sentenced her to 10 years in prison. After that, the case went to the High Court, which found guilty and sentenced to eight years in prison, but she was later acquitted.
