TRAFFICKING PROFILE
As reported in the last five years, human traffickers subject foreign men and women to forced labor and sex trafficking in Taiwan, and traffickers subject local men and women to forced labor and local women and children to sex trafficking. Taiwan women and children are subjected to domestic sex trafficking, including as part of an increasing trend in which traffickers induce and exploit Taiwan and foreign women’s and children’s drug addictions. Taiwan traffickers increasingly use the internet, smartphone apps, livestreaming, and other such online technologies to conduct recruitment activities, often targeting child victims, and to mask their identities from law enforcement. Taiwan traffickers also exploit persons with disabilities in sex trafficking. Traffickers lure women from China and Southeast Asian countries to

 Taiwan through fraudulent marriages and deceptive employment offers for purposes of sex trafficking. Many trafficking victims are migrant workers from Indonesia, the Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam, and, to a lesser extent, individuals from China, Cambodia, and Sri Lanka... ( more than 200 forprofit universities in Taiwan have begun aggressively recruiting foreign students—particularly Indonesians—and subsequently placing them into exploitative labor conditions ...)     https://www.state.gov/trafficking-in-persons-report-2020/

       PS: The website reported (earlier than US state gov. report) persons with disabilities in sex trafficking some years ago, and was ranked No.1 on Google (Chinese, English), but the police have not taken any move.

Police in Taiwan fired high-pressure water cannons on hundreds of demonstrators ( mostly were university students) who broke into the country's Cabinet,   At least 174 people, including 119 police officers, were wounded as the police wielded wooden clubs and later used water trucks.  Demonstrators were injured and bloodied, some got concussions and bone fractures,  the protesters strongly condemn the violence against the unarmed, weaponless students.

Why this event happened:The nature of this matter is that all levels of society have different views as to the signing of the service trade agreement,  The China trade bill, which would allow cross-strait investment on dozens of service trades ranging from banking to funeral parlors, has touched deep roots of concern, including Taiwan’s own history of authoritarian rule and its uneasy relationship with China, an emerging giant that considers the island part of its own territory that must eventually be reunited. Some Taiwanese believe parts of the agreement are beneficial to Taiwan's future, but many are incensed by what they believe were procedural errors in passing the pact.    Opponents of the deal say it could harm Taiwan's economy, democratic system and national security.he content of the agreement was developed in 'black box' negotiations. The agreement was passed without proper procedure.

 Just like a widely-known saying by Wu B.S. (吳伯雄) that everybody except the police knows illegal casino houses are everywhere in Taiwan, night-club's dark side is the same thing, lots of Taiwanese know the police take protection fee from night club/pub...  It's a distorted Taiwanese night-club culture.
 CtiTV (<中天>電視), 9.27.2014 (21:09pm): a reporter (記者羅友志): a police leader of certain precinct, city police department admitted having taken bribery money, and asked him don't tell anybody else.  Another reporter (名嘴江中博) expressed he saw some criminal police took bribery money.

The dark side of Taiwanese police discipline strongly damages the image of Taiwan's police.
Taipei police station failed to clarify a lot of police discipline matters questioned by the public, resulting in a bad to worse situation that nobody believe the police.  They said Taiwan's police share the night club business for a long time......

★ <The Liberty Times>, Taiwan, 1.13.2014   林鈺雄 Dr. Lin, NTU professor
Taiwan turns to a "privacy hell" because prosecutors and police abuse the right/power of retrieval of Taiwanese communication records... Taiwan's police access the most number of Taiwanese communication records (nearly 80% occupied)... Taiwan's total number of retrieval equals more than 200 times the number of records-retrieval in Germany ...  Taiwan's prosecutors (or police , investigation units) by themselves approve and issue approval of application for retrieval of communication records, without Taiwan judges' objective approval......   Taiwan's prosecutors and police want it quick and energy-saving, judges want to get rid of burden, so, Taiwan's constitution and Taiwanese human rights are not their (police, prosecutors, etc) concerns eventually?......

 Taiwan's Court hard to control abusing of power by prosecutors & police (「法院難管檢警濫權」author:  錢建榮, Taiwan's court judge)
Taiwan's prosecutors and police do wiretapping by using serious crime felony to cover up misdemeanors(重罪掩飾輕罪監聽), Taiwan's judges don't question their evidences/proofs...... the biggest problem is we don't have full-duty prosecutor's order court ( 專責的「強制處分專庭」), judges take turns to do the job, and don't care too much about those application for prosecutor's order... Taiwan's judiciary practice makes no difference between "judge for investigation" and "judge for judgment"... so Taiwan's Judiciary Yuan fails to reach the basic : to evade/side step the issue of dividing applications (「分案迴避」), e.g.,   those judges during investigation proceedings approve detention of accused, will they think the accused is innocent during judiciary proceedings? .... Taiwan judges fail to reach the goal of professional quality and neutrality ...！wiretapping harms the most Taiwanese privacy, but till now Taiwan fails to send a formal notice to those people being listened... Taiwanese people won't know being listened until they were prosecuted, as for those people not being indicted, they will never know about this ....  Taiwanese people can not do anything about this nation's most serious - mandatory punishment, no one can help them, they are rejected by Taiwan's judiciary systems...

Taiwan's Legislature passed wiretap restrictions yesterday, but vice secretary general of the Judicial Reform Foundation expressed that this amendment works nothing for Taiwanese privacy protection in advance and remedy afterwards (該修正案對人民隱私權的事先保障與事後救濟都是空的), Taiwan should learn "four-eyes-principle" (sync. wiretapping by prosecutors and police with judge's approval together with telephone-service staff inside the machinery/equipment room, Chinese namely "同步監聽") of USA or Japan, Taiwan's current way to do it seriously harms Taiwanese privacy.

 ★ <Apple Daily News> 1.16.2014 editorial
The legislature yesterday approved revisions to the Communication Security and Surveillance Act (通訊保障及監察法) to toughen the rules governing the use of wiretaps... previously, the prosecutors may keep listening someone even the legal case had already been closed, or the prosecutors may wiretap on a specific person and by the way listen other people in the same case... all these show their (prosecutors, police, investigation units) attitude of abusing power & playing the law.  This amendments immediately led to a rebound (opposition) by Taiwan's prosecutors, police, and investigation units...The Judicial Reform Foundation expressed : Taiwan's judiciary has not made any progress at all unless they avoid wiretapping mistakes by abolishing the watching center or attaching it to or under certain authority remaining neutral, and not allow accessing communication records unless they got the judges' approval...

  (1) Exclusive !!  police made a phony defendant's transcript document
      Songshan Precinet (松山分局), Taipei City Police Department,
        detective Chen You-ren (陳宥任) modified the defendant's report, by the detective's imagination, during initial questioning.

　

　

◆ Criminal case doc. by Songshan police dept. to Taipei court, prosecutors office(2013.10.25)

◆ Defendant's transcript report(2013.10.19)


Police's report changed suspect's (ps:defendant) words to be:

...(defendant) stated: ... I push her down by a chair... (故以椅子推倒被害人XXX)

　

Q (police asks): Have you ever held a chair against her chest and attacked her by your fist (用椅子頂被害人胸口，並以拳頭攻擊...)

A (defendant's answer-statement): ...I pull her by my hand... ( 我有用手拉她手臂請她離去...)
　
SO....

The police department changed both the detective's expression and the defendant's transcript report ― created a phony story.

　 Liberty Times,  Nov. 8, '12, ETtoday    http://www.libertytimes.com.tw/2012/new/nov/8/today-so5.htm

Detective Chen suspiciously concealed 2 models' transcript (daze rape by "wolf" Lee 李宗瑞) ,  and even asked them to ignore prosecutor's subpoenas by phrases "it's hard for you to prove it's a sexual assaulting case, it's useless to attend prosecutors office, you don't need to be there !" , that leads to police investigation trouble, and more sexual assaults on innocent girls by that "wolf" Lee...... detective Chen explained he did not do this by intention, it's his faineancy and neglect of the duty.......     

(Chinese version: ...據週刊報導，警方最初追查李宗瑞被控迷姦小模姊妹花時，解姓目擊證人指證，曾見李把小模姊姊抬上計程車，他為此還和李打架；但北市刑大承辦偵查佐陳宥任製作筆錄後，卻未將筆錄移送檢方，法官因而無法收押李宗瑞。更扯的是，提告的小模姊妹花事後居然都不願出庭，檢方拘提兩女，妹妹還埋怨，當初不到庭，是因陳宥任說「妳這很難證明是性侵啦，去了也沒有（用），不用去啦！」檢方將徹查陳宥任員。

...早在去年7月，李宗瑞的前女友和其姐姐「小模姐妹花」就已指控被李下藥迷姦，為何事隔一年案情才撥雲見日？據悉，一開始負責偵辦的員警陳宥任，疑隱匿「小模姐妹花」的筆錄，甚至要她們別理檢方傳票，導致偵查陷入膠著。也因為如此，李宗瑞才能繼續在外逍遙，性侵更多無辜女性。......市刑大偵5隊員警陳宥任不知為何，在移送李宗瑞案時，並未將此關鍵目擊證人的筆錄隨案給檢方。由於檢方缺少這份關鍵筆錄，法官才以「無法確認被迷姦者的身分」，當庭釋放李宗瑞，錯失先機讓惡狼繼續逍遙法外。......陳宥任解釋他不是故意隱匿筆錄，只是「一時疏忽」，但不論如何，因為他的一時疏忽，可能有更多女性無辜受害。)

   (3) Police leave some cases behind (吃案) !
　 【The China Times 中時電子報】  華夏經緯網  03/27/2007

All tricky ways Taiwan police leave cases behind (台灣警察吃案手法 大公開)

Former Taiwan vice Prime Minister (行政院副院長葉菊蘭)'s girl-cousin was abused/tortured several days by Taiwan's Mafia/Gang/Mob, this victim twice came to police dept. for help, but receive rejection for reason "personal debt problem"... Taiwan police attitude leads to bad guys' act in foolhardy manner '    

 

Police golden rule for survival is "foolish police don't ignore cases ", because performance evaluation will kill those "foolish" police, inspite of that heads of police reiterated they are strongly against this ...

 

There're too many tricky ways for police leaving cases behind ... e.g., police may accepts cases like robbery by motorbike, but they won't really access the case, or some police may try all means to persuade victims to ignore their cases, or even give some money by themselves to victims as compensation...

Some police may persuade victims to just put some case on record first, and promise do investigation soon, hence this case will not be in statistics report at that day, hence higher ranking officials won't give pressure to the police to investigate the case ...(事後再補辦正式報案手續後，被害人也取得報案三聯單)
     

 As for some cases like Traffic accidents Causing Bodily Harm, police may nicely persuade victims to reach an amicable settlement, or to back home first for a second thought ―  if they really want a suit-case in court? ... so that this case may not be in statistics within 3-5 months... 

　

 If victims of relatives-missing fail to bring direct evidence of being killed or kidnapped to police, they usually treat this kind of case as people missing, this way caused a female teacher's death by killing.   

　

Most police report cases of stolen motorbike as "license plate missing", if Taiwanese people encounter stealing cases or young kids hand in their cell-phones for bad-guys' threaten behavior, police usually will persuade victims "are you sure it's stolen? or you lost it by yourself?", "you may be accused by serious crime namely "Malicious Accusation"... so these cases won't be listed in police statistics.  

 

Many companies received bad-guy's threaten-letters a lot, most police will promise they will give warnings to bad guys, they definitely don't dare to touch you .... 

The Liberty Times   Oct. 3,   Police dept. ignore police's death case  

DPP legislator (吳宜臻) hold a press conference to accuse police officials don't want to access pension matter for his detective police who  "sudden died from overwork" (work 15 hour per day, 100 hours overtime one month before his sudden death), just because this matter may affect official's (樹林分局長官) promotion ...
　

 CTS (華視TV news)     

Police ignoring a case caused a 17 yrs old girl being killed 

A victim's father in Tainan accused police dept. ignored his report (his age 17 daughter experienced "abduct to kidnap" & being sexual assaulted 7 years ago), lead to his daughter's death by killing and sexual assaults, if police accessed his report at once, his daughter may have chance to be alive ....  

PS: exclusive news

   "The Problem of Policing Taiwan - Police Story"

    brief:

... Till now many Taiwanese people still think Taiwan's police have prefect problem, corruption problem, "ignore cases (吃案)" problem, "colluding with Mafia/Gang interest groups" problem ...

    Last June a "police image" survey conducted by women foundation (<現代婦女基金會>), less than 10% people think Taiwan's police did a good job on "cracking criminal cases", "Eradicating vice", "defend crime in advance", 20% people totally dissatisfy Taiwan's police performance.

    The image of Taiwan's police:  38% - police prefect,  12% - cracking criminal cases , 25% - defend crimes in advance, 20% - attitude, obviously, police corruption, police shielding illegal cases, this kind of matters are Taiwanese people's first concern. 

   Besides, Taiwanese people don't accept police act against the law, there should be a clear line between police and bad guys.
