Optical lens manufacturer Largan Precision Co. (3008) was investigated and searched the day before yesterday. The whole case is suspected to be reported by the manufacturer due to a software licensing dispute. The Investigation Bureau brought back three people for questioning, including Mr. Huang, the chief director of R&D department of Largan Precision. After the prosecution’s re-examination, the three people were suspected of serious crimes of exploitation for business purposes of a copy of a computer program that infringes on economic rights in such computer program, and ordered Mr. Huang to pay NT$ 1 million, the deputy director Chen to pay NT$ 600,000, and the section chief Huang to pay NT$ 200,000 in bail for violating copyright, and all of them were restricted from leaving the country.
It is understood that in the case of Largan Precision suing Ability Opto-Electronics Technology for stealing trade secrets many years ago, the court summoned Mr. Huang to testify in court as a witness, and it is to be clarified whether the prosecutor’s search and interview are related to this case.
