charges by Taiwanese prosecutors after it was discovered that he facilitated the procurement of 17 x-ray securityscanners valued at more than NT$70 million (US$2 million) from a Chinese firm.
Local media report that Sun Yi-ming (孫一鳴) accepted a NT$3.6 million bribe after being seduced by Li Weilin (李委霖), a 32-year-old manager at Nuctech in Taiwan, a Chinese company run by individuals with links to the Chinese Communist Party, including a son of former president Hu Jintao (胡錦濤).
