Following vote captain Lin Shao Hsiu-yu's (????) arrest three days ago, Kaohsiung judges yesterday approved the detention of another vote captain, Cheng Tien-ho (???), who allegedly worked for the same candidate as Lin Shao, on the charge of bribery.

"Cheng has admitted that he was trying to buy votes for one of the candidates in his constituency at the price of NT$500 each. He had finished his job and gave away NT$200,000, which was provided by the candidate. However, he has not told us who that candidate is," Prosecutor Huang Tsai-hsiu (???) said.

Prosecutors discovered that Cheng is a resident of the city's fifth constituency. A total of 15 candidates, including former city council speaker Chu An-hsiung's (???) daughter, Chu Ting-shan (???), and former Kaohsiung City Government Civil Affairs Bureau Director Wang Wen-cheng's (???) son, Wang Yu-bin (???), are campaigning for seven seats.
