Three Chen family members plead guilty
(01-21 16:00)
Three relatives of Taiwan's former president Chen Shui-bian, his son, daughter-in-law and brother-in-law, have pleaded guilty to charges of money laundering.

The former president's son Chen Chih-chung, daughter-in-law Huang Jui-chin and brother-in-law Wu Chin-mao all pleaded guilty.

Prosecutors say the suspects may have laundered at least NT$820 million (HK$190.32 million).

''I'm guilty,'' Wu told a Taipei judge, while Chen and Huang nodded when asked if they were guilty.
