Su called on Chen to continue serving in his position steadfastly while waiting for the judiciary to prove his innocence. Hsu had forwarded a case involving Chen, NPA Department of Human Resources Director Chang Shu-fang (張淑芳), as well as NPA Director-General’s Office coordinators Wu Cheng-chieh (吳正杰), Chu Cheng-tzu (渠正慈) and Wang Wen-chu (王文助), to the Taipei District Prosecutors’ Office. Premier Su Tseng-chang yesterday comments on the Ministry of the Interior’s decision to report National Police Agency Director-General Chen Chia-chin to prosecutors during a visit to Taichung Distillery to inspect the progress of the distillery’s epidemic prevention measures. Su yesterday said he was dismayed by the incident, adding that the public is likely confused and unimpressed by the kerfuffle, especially amid fears over COVID-19. Su added that the ministry did not inform his aide of the matter until after 8pm on Friday.
