The Aierli voyeurism scandal continues to escalate; equipment supplier claims senior management instructed them to "destroy evidence" │ Mirror News reporter Zhang Jinghan News Link: The well-known chain medical aesthetics group Aierli has been embroiled in a voyeurism scandal. Police and prosecutors are currently searching all branches across Taiwan and reviewing patient records to identify potential victims. However, during the investigation, it was discovered that a surveillance engineer surnamed Xie had received prior instructions from senior management to dismantle and even format the mainframes of surveillance cameras in 10 branches in central and northern Taiwan, attempting to destroy evidence. Furthermore, it was discovered that minors were also filmed. Lawyer Li Yusheng of Fidelity Law Firm stated that while consumers of medical aesthetic procedures are usually adults, if minors have visited clinics for related treatments and been secretly filmed, the case could escalate into a case under the Child and Youth Sexual Exploitation Prevention Act…

Hidden Camera Scandals Erupt in Clinic Area; Health Bureau Raids Banqiao Branch | TVBS News Reporter Guo Ying News Link: The Erli Group has been embroiled in a hidden camera scandal. New Taipei City consumer protection officials and health bureau personnel raided the Banqiao branch to confirm refund matters. However, a former employee came forward accusing the company of requiring employees to post reviews and delaying salary payments. Although the equipment manufacturer stated that installing surveillance cameras was illegal, legal experts analyze that to become a cooperating witness, one must provide evidence helpful to the case, but the chances are low when the criminal activity is clear. Attorney Xu Wanwei of Fidelity Law Firm stated that a cooperating witness must assist in clarifying the case, provide crucial evidence of the crime, and be deemed by the prosecutor to have substantial help in the case before they can be considered. This hidden camera case…

Chang Shu-yuan, accused of murdering his wife and children for insurance fraud, remained silent throughout the 40-question trial. | TVBS News Reporter Guo Ying News Link: Continuing to follow this case, the New Taipei District Court held intensive hearings last month. Chang Shu-yuan exercised his right to remain silent in the face of as many as 40 questions from the prosecutor and judge, setting a precedent for public participation in the trial. However, legal experts analyze that although he exercised his right to remain silent, the judge will still sentence him based on the relevant evidence, and may even consider his poor attitude after the crime, resulting in a heavier sentence. Lawyer Li Yu-sheng of Fidelity Law Firm stated that although the defendant is legally entitled to remain silent, the judge can still conduct the trial based on the existing evidence. If the judge reviews the relevant materials and asks questions to the defendant, and the defendant exercises his right to remain silent, it is equivalent to giving up the opportunity to defend himself…

The Taipei District Prosecutors Office is also investigating this as a separate case. Lawyer Li Yusheng of Fuda Law Firm stated that Huangchang Construction's construction methods did not match the tender specifications, which may involve forgery, fraud, etc. Further investigation will determine if the Taipei City…

Wrongfully convicted for 30 years! Su Yaohui acquitted in retrial for attempted murder | TTV News reporter Li Ruoci News link: Nearly 30 years ago, a murder occurred on Qingyun Road, Tucheng District, New Taipei City. Two suspects, armed with machetes, severely injured a couple surnamed Zhan. Based on a color photograph provided by the police, the couple identified Su Yaohui, the man wearing a full-face helmet, as the perpetrator. He was convicted of attempted murder and sentenced to eight years in prison in a second trial. Su Yaohui maintained his innocence and spent 25 years on the run, appealing his case. The Supreme Court twice overturned the original verdict. Nearly 30 years later, the High Court today (the 29th) ruled that the evidence was insufficient and acquitted him, clearing his name. The case can still be appealed. Lawyer Li Yusheng of Fidelity Law Firm stated that in this case, because the police only provided a single photograph for the victims to identify him, it violated the "selective..."
