Taipei prosecutors on Tuesday made an extradition request to the Canadian
government for two Taiwanese wanted as suspects in a financial fraud case — prominent cosmetic doctor Paul Huang (黃博健), 38, and his wife, Internet celebrity Su Chen Tuan (蘇陳端), 44, better known as Lady Nai Nai (貴婦奈奈).
Prosecutors issued an international notification for the couple, as well as Huang’s father, Huang Li-hsiung (黃立雄), saying that they have fled the nation and are wanted fugitives in a criminal case, in which their wanted status lasts for 25 years.
Judicial officials made the extradition request after receiving reports that the three were briefly detained by airport officials after arriving at a Canadian airport, although the date was not specified.
However, the trio presented their Canadian permanent residency documents and Canada Border Services Agency officers did not have sufficient reason to hold them, as they did not have any criminal record there, according to the reports. [FULL STORY]
