Chen Shui-bian denies $31 m bribe accusation

TAIPEI: Former Taiwan "president" Chen Shui-bian said yesterday he had done nothing wrong after a prosecutor questioned him for more than four hours about a bribery case involving his family.

The family is suspected of depositing at least T$1 billion ($31.7 million) in banks in Japan, the United States, the Cayman Islands, Singapore and Switzerland, among other places, Taiwan media reported citing the Supreme Court prosecutor's office.

Chen, in office from 2000 to May 2008, denies any wrongdoing.
