Case Background and Legal Disputes

In Zhonghe District, New Taipei City, three women were randomly assaulted on the breasts yesterday morning (6/13), and the locations were all near a well-known shopping mall. After receiving the report, the police notified the suspect surnamed Zhong to report to the case. He also confessed that he suffered from dementia and had forgotten what he had done. However, the three victims still insisted on filing a complaint of forced indecency.

A criminal lawyer from Fidelity Law Firm stated that the perpetrator groped the victim's breasts before she could react, which violates Article 25 of the Sexual Harassment Prevention Act, specifically the crime of sudden groping. This carries a maximum penalty of up to two years imprisonment, detention, or a fine of up to NT$100,000. While the perpetrator claims to have dementia, the court will need to review a medical assessment to determine whether such a condition is indeed present. Without CCTV footage, the evidence may be insufficient, but bystanders who witnessed the groping could testify.

What should be confirmed first when encountering similar cases?

  • First, organize the event timeline, notices, contracts, chat logs, photos, videos, and payment information.
  • Confirm the current stage of the process: it may be just a consultation, you may have been interviewed, you may have received a summons, you may have entered into court proceedings, or you may need to file a lawsuit to seek compensation.
  • Assess whether there are immediate risks such as statute of limitations, evidence preservation, detention, imprisonment, settlement negotiations, or media exposure.

Frequently Asked Questions

When you receive a summons or are asked to speak with someone, do you need to hire a criminal lawyer first?

If you have already received a notice from the District Attorney's Office, the police station, or the court, it is recommended that you first organize the summons, case details, conversation records, and related documents, and have your lawyer assess the direction of the investigation, possible charges, and response strategies to avoid making unfavorable statements without knowing the legal consequences.

Is detention always a requirement for criminal cases?

Whether or not detention is necessary is usually related to the suspicion of a criminal suspect, the possibility of escape, the risk of collusion or destruction of evidence, and the seriousness of the case. In major criminal cases, financial crimes, corruption cases, or cases involving multiple accomplices, it is even more necessary to prepare specific materials as early as possible to explain that there is no need for detention.
