Taipei Prison yesterday arranged for former President Chen Shui-bian (陳水扁) to undergo a follow-up medical exam and said that the results showed that Chen was in good health and that he only needs medical treatment in the prison, as opposed to medical parole.

Chen underwent a follow-up at Taoyuan General Hospital yesterday morning.

A group of Chen’s supporters gathered at the hospital lobby, shouting: “A-bian is innocent” when he arrived.
