台北市政府警察局信義分局。(中央社檔案照片) Newtalk新聞 (中央社記者林長順台北19日電)富商鍾文智判刑定讞後潛逃,北檢查出,鍾文智在限制出境期間須向派出所報到,疑有員警協助鍾男偽造簽名。北檢昨天搜索、約談北市信義警分局李姓副所長等人,今天依貪污等罪將李男聲押禁見。 檢察官另約談鍾文智的葉姓帳房、信義分局梁姓、古姓副所長、李男妻子黃姓女子等人到案,訊後聲押葉男,並諭令梁、古新台幣30萬元交保、限制出境出海,黃女50萬元交保,限制出境出海及實施科技監控。 鍾文智涉嫌違反證券交易法獲利4億餘元,最高法院今年3月12日判刑合計30年5月定讞,檢方聲請定執行刑,台灣高等法院裁定應執行18年徒刑。北檢接獲通知後啟動防逃機制,由於鍾文智未依規定向派出所報到,檢察官認為鍾男有逃亡或藏匿情形,發布通緝。 最高檢察署指示北檢就鍾文智棄保潛逃分案偵辦,指派檢察官指揮台北市警察局信義分局、刑事警察大隊、新北市警察局新店分局、警政署刑事警察局、法務部調查局台北市調查處、海洋委員會海巡署、內政部移民署等相關單位偵辦。 鍾文智涉證交法案於民國110年至112年審理期間,法院多次裁定鍾文智限制出境、出海,並定期向轄區派出所報到。警政署政風室、信義分局自清自檢發現,疑有員警涉嫌協助鍾文智偽造簽到簽名,涉嫌違反刑法偽造文書等罪。信義分局、台北市調查處報請檢察官指揮偵辦。 北檢昨天指揮台北市調查處、警政署政風室、信義分局等單位,持法院核發搜索票,搜索福德派出所、三張犁派出所涉案官警座位及住處等15處所,並約談李、梁、古、葉、黃等被告及10多名證人到案。 檢察官漏夜複訊後,認定李男涉犯刑法行使公務員登載不實公文書、貪污治罪條例對主管事務圖利、財產來源不明及個資法等罪嫌,犯罪嫌疑重大,且有勾串之虞,向法院聲請羈押禁見。(編輯:謝雅竹)1141219 延伸閱讀:「玻璃大王」銳評中國企業家!謝金河:用國家的雞、將來不知誰的蛋中國女在日本機場飆罵台灣遊客!矢板明夫:中共鼓動仇外必然結果美國11月通膨放緩美股止跌! 美光飆漲逾10%、台積電ADR漲2.79%金正恩:援俄部隊沒得到補償或報酬 俄高官期待朝鮮人回去排雷南方雲系北移水氣增多!今明各地濕涼、中南部迎冬雨東半部雨勢大

美議員提阻中犯台10項建議 促擴大安全及能源合作

Newtalk新聞 中共對台軍事威脅不斷之際,美國跨黨派聯邦眾議員今天發布報告提出10項政策建議,以強化對中共侵台的嚇阻力;建議內容包括擴大、加速對台安全援助,與台合作擴大並多元化能源供應,以及助台提升民防整備。 共和黨籍的聯邦眾議院美國與中國共產黨戰略競爭特別委員會主席穆勒納爾(John Moolenaar)、委員會民主黨首席議員克利什納穆希(Raja Krishnamoorthi)今天共同發布「再為台灣提10項政策建議」(Ten More for Taiwan)報告,列出強化嚇阻中共侵台行為的迫切措施。 根據美中戰略競爭委員會今天發布的新聞稿,這份最新報告是在委員會先前提出「支持台灣之10項政策建議」(Ten for Taiwan)報告的基礎上進一步延伸。中共近來發展已提高台海衝突的風險,凸顯台美在經濟、國防與政治層面深化合作,以維持台海和平穩定的必要性。 這份最新報告強調,美國的目標是嚇阻戰爭,「這需要緊急動用所有國家力量的要素」。 穆勒納爾透過新聞稿表示,中國國家主席習近平已下令共軍必要時,於2027年做好奪台準備,「因此2026是建立台海嚇阻力迫切的一年」。這代表必須增加武器庫存、強化後勤能力,並為中國解放軍製造足以嚇阻其攻台的困境。 克利什納穆希也說,這份跨黨派報告明確指出,「台灣不是、也永遠不會是和中國共產黨談判的籌碼」,有效嚇阻不僅來自軍事力量,還包括政治訊號、強化經濟連結及對共同價值的堅定承諾。「美國如何回應全球各地的脅迫與侵略行為,將直接影響北京對台的盤算」。 這份報告提出一份近期行動路線圖,列出的政策建議包括美國應積極且持續重申對台安全承諾;推動尚待完成的美台貿易、稅務、旅遊與科技協議,國會也應通過立法,嚇阻並迅速回應中國的經濟脅迫及保護關鍵供應鏈。 報告也建議美國擴大、加速並簡化對台安全援助,建立互利的國防產業合作計畫;緊急優先並擴大國防工業生產與維修能量的建設,降低對中國供應鏈的依賴;強化美軍維持前沿部署部隊的能力;加速區域基礎建設、基地與進出權安排及情報共享機制,進一步整合美國、日本、菲律賓及其他盟友、夥伴在第一島鏈的部隊,建立新的多邊演習與指管架構。 其他建議還包括與台灣合作,擴大並多元化能源供應,增加液化天然氣進口與儲存能力,建立美國與盟國農產品與醫療物資的庫存,並強化網路安全能力;協助台灣提升民防整備,同時為台灣軍方人員提供更多參與美國訓練計畫的機會;優先推動擴大台灣在國際組織的參與和角色,強化全球夥伴關係;因中國和俄羅斯之間「無上限」夥伴關係而對中國施加代價,使習近平在台灣議題上的盤算更為困難,同時也強化北約(NATO)軍事戰備與工業能力,以嚇阻及回應多個戰區中的威權威脅。延伸閱讀:美國8項對台軍售逾3500億元!外交部:落實新版「國家安全戰略」美宣布對台軍售逾3,500億元 總統府:落實對台安全承諾川普大麻煩 曾經投他的選民因生活開銷成本上漲轉向民主黨美兩黨參議員提決議案挺日本 斥責中國「持續單方面挑釁」拉攏美國 土耳其退還俄羅斯S-400防空系統

反對與南美簽自貿協議 歐盟農民開拖拉機癱瘓交通

Newtalk新聞 歐盟農民反對與南方共同市場簽署自貿協議,在布魯塞爾的抗爭持續到傍晚,下班尖峰時刻,市區主要道路出現大量拖拉機緩慢行駛伴隨鳴笛,以癱瘓交通的方式表達抗議。 歐盟執委會原本預計本週與擔任南方共同市場主席國的巴西簽署自由貿易協議,以建立極具規模的自由貿易區。不過,歐盟和南方共同市場在農產品相關的安全、環保等標準不同,歐盟農民憂心如果簽署自貿協議,可能造成不公平競爭。 歐盟領袖高峰會今天上午在布魯塞爾舉行,來自各歐盟國家的農民則在會場外示威抗議。抗議的農民向警方投擲馬鈴薯、香蕉和玻璃瓶等物品,也有人在現場堆疊木製品並點燃,還有抗議者燃放煙火。警方則動用水柱驅散人群。 根據布魯塞爾警方統計,至少有7300名來自各地的農民參與今天的抗議活動,不過歐洲主要農會傘狀組織Copa Cogeca則表示,今天的抗議農民至少超過1萬人。 另據警方統計,抗議農民至少從歐盟各地開來了950輛拖拉機。 下班尖峰時刻,布魯塞爾市區多條主要道路出現大量拖拉機,抗議農民藉由緩慢行駛癱瘓交通,伴隨尖銳且連續的鳴笛,表達反對歐盟與南方共同市場簽署自貿協議。 不少拖拉機掛上抗議標語,其中一輛懸掛的是「我們不要把南方共同市場的東西放入餐盤,我們要的是一份公平的收入」。入夜後,抗議的農民逐漸散去。 巴西總統魯拉(Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva)日前曾表示,將於12月20日在巴西舉行自由貿易協議簽署儀式。然而目前包含法國在內的數個歐洲國家要求延後協議簽署的時間,若協議未獲得歐盟理事會「合格多數」(至少15國、代表65%人口)通過,歐盟執委會主席范德賴恩(Ursula von der Leyen)將無法簽署。延伸閱讀:未來駐烏維和部隊可對俄軍「直接開火」! 歐盟 : 不能期盼美國來救援「玻璃大王」銳評中國企業家!謝金河:用國家的雞、將來不知誰的蛋中國女在日本機場飆罵台灣遊客!矢板明夫:中共鼓動仇外必然結果美國11月通膨放緩美股止跌! 美光飆漲逾10%、台積電ADR漲2.79%金正恩:援俄部隊沒得到補償或報酬 俄高官期待朝鮮人回去排雷
