1. Taiwan prosecutors indict four for helping Chinese handlers pay military leakers in cryptocurrency

   Taiwan's High Prosecutors' Office indicted four people for helping Chinese contacts pay Taiwanese military personnel who leaked military secrets. Retired military police captain Yu Cheng-yu, already indicted separately for selling secrets for Tether, is accused of receiving Chinese transfers into his own crypto wallet from March to October 2024, converting them to cash and depositing it in accounts of a retired serviceman surnamed Li and a coast guard officer surnamed Tsai to disguise the source, earning NT$430,403 himself. The other defendants are retired servicemen surnamed Li and Sen; prosecutors asked for heavy sentences and the case has gone to the High Court.
