The agency's Taipei branch said the money will go toward fines totaling ninety-seven million, eight hundred and thirty-three thousand, eight hundred and eighty-eight New Taiwan dollars that the Control Yuan imposed after finding Ko violated the Political Donations Act.
Because Ko posted the bail himself, the agency said the sum counts as his own liable property and can be enforced.
Ko's wife, Chen Pei-chi, protested on Facebook, calling the seizure banditry and insisting the money was hers, funds she says she earned and borrowed.
The agency said Chen may file a third-party objection lawsuit before enforcement concludes.
Ko was sentenced in March to seventeen years in prison in the Core Pacific City corruption case, with the bail kept in place while his appeal is heard.
