Dozens of investigators raided former president Chen Shui-bian’s (陳水扁) office yesterday morning after allegations surfaced that he had illegally removed boxes of classified government documents from the Presidential Office when he left office two years ago.

The search by the Supreme Prosecutor’s Office Special Investigation Panel (SIP) resulted in the removal of almost 60 boxes of files from the ex-president’s former office on Guanqian Road in Taipei and his new office on Linyi Street, office director Chen Sung-shan (陳淞山) said.
