The investigation continues into Taiwanese companies linked to the production of pagers that exploded in Lebanon this week. The foreign minister says there were no direct exports of the devices to the Middle Eastern country. Overnight, prosecutors in Taipei interviewed Hsu Ching-kuang, the owner of Gold Apollo, whose branding was on the pagers. Prosecutors also interviewed a woman surnamed Wu they say was involved with BAC Consulting. Both were released without bail.
