Why It Matters
Jian Nan and his wife separated due to emotional discord. He suspected that his wife had inappropriate relationships with others and commissioned a credit reporting agency to search for evidence.
A man surnamed Jian suspected that his estranged wife (both parties had since divorced) was having an affair with someone else, so he spent money to hire a credit reporting company to collect evidence. The credit reporting agency staff rented the same building as a base, took the opportunity to stuff a plastic strip into the keyhole of the door, and then broke into the woman's residence. When he saw his wife lying naked on the bed, he lost control of his emotions on the spot. After trial, the New Taipei District Court sentenced Jian Nan to five months in prison for the crime of injury, and employees surnamed Fan and Liu of the credit reporting agency were convicted of home invasion and theft, and were sentenced to August and July respectively.
The verdict pointed out that Jian Nan and his wife were separated due to emotional discord, and he suspected that his wife was having an inappropriate relationship with others, so he went to a credit reporting agency to search for evidence. Fan Nan then ordered Liu Nan to rent a house in the same building where the woman lived as a place to search for evidence. In the early morning of April 20, 2024, the staff of the credit reporting agency first stuffed a long plastic object into the keyhole of the door of the woman's residence, causing the door lock to be opened at will. At about 1:56 in the morning, Fan Nan drove in with Jian Nan and the man nicknamed "Xiao Zuo".
As soon as they entered the room, everyone saw the woman lying naked on the bed, and there was also a man in the room. Regardless of the woman's nakedness, Jian Nan and Fan Nan forcibly pulled her to prevent her from covering up with a sheet or putting on clothes, causing multiple bruises on the woman's arms and thighs, and even the sheets on her body were torn on the spot. During the process, Fan Nan also directed "Xiao Zuo" to search the garbage in the kitchen and toilet trash cans and take them away, intending to use them for testing to see if there were any biological traces such as "semen" left behind as ironclad evidence of an affair.
Jian's wife said that she was resting and sleeping at home, and felt that she was suddenly invaded. She accused Jian of domestic violence. The man in the room said that he was just "discussing business" with the woman in the room. After going to court, Jian argued that he lived with his wife and the door was unlocked. He denied forcefully pulling or tearing the sheets; the credit agency personnel also denied stuffing plastic strips or using force.
The judge inspected the building monitors, the victim's mobile phone video footage, and combined the victim's testimony and other evidence to determine that the three people's defense was inadmissible. He reprimanded the three people for not respecting the legal rights of others' bodies, health, freedom, and property, and for being violent in society. After the crime, they made excuses and denied the crime, and sentenced them to the above-mentioned prison terms.
