Former Democratic Progressive Party legislator Chen Ou-po served in the Legislative Yuan from 2012 to 2024. In April 2026, the Taipei District Court sentenced Chen to 16 years in prison for corruption, embezzlement, and money laundering. His wife, Hsu Hui-yu, was sentenced to four years and six months for related charges.
The court found Chen guilty of accepting bribes from United Logistics International Co and a car rental association to influence legislation and regulatory decisions, resulting in over NT$4.63 million in illicit gains. He was also convicted of fraudulently inflating legislative assistant salaries to misappropriate NT$4.11 million. Chen admitted to the fraudulent salary claims but denied the bribery charges. While Chen was also investigated for unexplained wealth and public interest embezzlement, prosecutors dismissed those specific allegations, a decision later upheld by the High Prosecutors Office.
