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.

The Norwegian Advanced Surface-to-Air Missile Systems (NASAMS) Taiwan ordered from the US would be installed in strategically important positions in Taipei and New Taipei City to guard the region, the Ministry of National Defense said in statement yesterday.

The air defense system would be deployed in Taipei’s Songshan District (松山) and New Taipei City’s Tamsui District (淡水), the ministry said, adding that the systems could be delivered as soon as the end of this year.

The US Defense Security Cooperation Agency has previously said that three NASAMS would be sold to Taiwan.
