The suspect is Thai. But how should foreigners commit crimes in Taiwan? The Criminal Bureau stated that Thailand has jurisdiction over the Taoyuan High-Speed Rail murder case, and the two sides may negotiate and investigate through mutual legal assistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Facing the camera, smiling and nodding, he is Qin Xiangyu, the head of Dingli Group. A money-sucking case broke out 11 years ago, with illegal gains exceeding 13.6 billion yuan. However, he abandoned bail and fled the country in 2016. In September 2018, Qin Xiangyu also tried to enter Thailand with a fake passport, but Taiwan had already notified the Thai police and escorted him back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Zhang Weizhi, who used Bitcoin mining as a gimmick to earn more than 10 billion yuan, was arrested in Thailand in May this year and was also escorted back to Taiwan. The two cases have in common that they committed the crime in Taiwan, fled to Thailand, and the wanted criminals were captured through cooperation between the police of the two countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Li Yangji, Chief of the International Section of the Criminal Bureau: &quot;When one of our cases occurs, we will actually have mutual legal assistance during the intelligence stage, and then when we come to mutual legal assistance, we may have to make contact through the diplomatic system.&quot; The Criminal Bureau stated that in the Taoyuan High-Speed Rail murder case, the suspect is a Thai national. Thailand has jurisdiction. The two parties are likely to negotiate and obtain criminal evidence files through mutual judicial assistance. After the crime is confirmed, it will be directly investigated, prosecuted and tried in Thailand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">Criminal Lawyer Explained<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Lawyer Li Yusheng: &quot;According to the provisions of Taiwan&#039;s Criminal Law, if the crime committed is the death penalty, life imprisonment, or a felony with a fixed-term imprisonment of more than 10 years, the prosecution period in Taiwan&#039;s judicial system is 30 years.&quot; According to Taiwanese law, Regardless of whether they are nationals or foreigners, as long as they commit crimes in Taiwan, they fall under the jurisdiction of our country. The legal retroactive period is 30 years. As long as they enter Taiwan within this period, they will be tried in accordance with the law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2796\u2796\u2796\u2796\u2796\u2796\u2796\u2796<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">If you have any relevant legal questions, please feel free to call us, we will sincerely serve you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Line\uff1a<a href=\"https:\/\/line.me\/ti\/p\/@fdlaw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/line.me\/ti\/p\/@fdlaw<\/a><br>Tel:<a href=\"tel: 886277093611\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">0277093611<\/a><br>Facebook:<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/fudalawyer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/fudalawyer<\/a><br>website:<a href=\"https:\/\/fdlaw.com.tw\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/fdlaw.com.tw\/<\/a><br>e-mail:<a href=\"mailto:info@fdlaw.com.tw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">info@fdlaw.com.tw<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group fdlaw-faq-block is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What should I do if I receive a criminal summons or am notified by the police?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First, confirm the identity of the person as a defendant, suspect, or witness, and gather relevant information.
