Lin Yi-shih (Chinese: 林益世; pinyin: Lín Yìshì; born 19 August 1968) is a Taiwanese politician.
[4] On 27 June 2012, local media reported that Lin had accepted a bribe of NT$63 million from Chen Chi-hsiang in exchange for helping his Dih Yeon Mineral Selection Company secure a contract from China Steel Corporation in 2010.
[6] Lin appealed the ruling to the Taiwan High Court, which lengthened his prison term to 13 years and six months.
[7] A subsequent appeal to the Supreme Court found Lin guilty of "holding properties of unknown origin," for which he was issued a sentence of two years imprisonment.
A second charge, of "receiving bribes in breach of official duties," regarded as a violation of the Anti-Corruption Act, was returned to the High Court for retrial.
