Prosecutors question Li Yixiang
Posted on 2021-04-08 14:06:04
Hualian Prosecutors have started questioning defendant Li Yi-xiang, the main
suspect involved in last week's deadly train crash.

Li has been detained incommunicado for four days, and prosecutors have also
requested to detain Li's possible accomplice Hua Wen-hao.

Hua, an absconded Vietnamese migrant worker, was arrested yesterday and is
listed as the second defendant.

According to media reports based on Transportation Safety Board's
investigations, the maintenance truck that Li drove into the construction
site got stuck in a bush above the slope, so he left the truck and got on an
excavator to try to move the truck.

But the excavator somehow lost its grip on the truck, causing it to slide
down onto the railway track.

A little over one minute later, the Taroko 408 train hit the truck and
crashed into Qing-shui Tunnel, killing 50 and injuring 211.

The T-S-B also said there was another person at the scene, but prosecutors
have declined to confirm whether that person is the migrant worker.
