CHINESE Taipei Prosecutors filed charges against 24 people yesterday in the biggest baseball game-fixing scandal.
Indictments follow an investigation lasting more than three months and covering 67 people and three of the Chinese Professional Baseball League's current four teams, said Cheng Hsin-hung, spokesman for the Banciao prosecutor's office in suburban Taipei. The case covered deliberately poor performances by players to satisfy betting rings over four seasons including 2009, Cheng said. Bets were made on which teams would win and by how many points.
