Keelung landlord’s nephew’s boyfriend leaked tenant’s ID card and sentenced to 2 months in prison

A Keelung woman surnamed Shen continued to live in the house after her lease expired and refused to move out. She went to court with her landlord surnamed Jian. The judge ruled that Shen must move and return the house. After Jian's niece's boyfriend, named Zhang, learned about it, he published the verdict and Shen's ID card on the social software Threads in an attempt to force Shen to come forward to deal with the matter. Instead, he ended up in a lawsuit. The Keelung District Court recently concluded a trial and determined that Zhang Nan violated the Personal Data Protection Act by illegally using other people's information. He was sentenced to two months in prison and a fine of Yike.

According to the prosecutor's investigation, Shen Nv signed a contract with the landlord named Jian in March 2024, renting his house until April of the following year at a monthly price of 8,000 yuan. However, after the lease expired, Shen Nv was unwilling to move out and continued to live in the house, leading to a court case.

On December 15 last year, the Keelung District Court sentenced Ms. Shen to return the house and pay compensation for related expenses and legal fees. However, Ms. Shen ignored the verdict. Mr. Zhang decided to help his girlfriend’s aunt breathe out and posted the contents of the judgment and Ms. Shen’s ID card and other information on Threads.

After Shen Nv discovered that her personal information had been leaked by Zhang Nv, she believed that the other party had illegally used her personal information and filed a lawsuit against her.

After the trial, the judge determined that Zhang Nan's illegal use of other people's information may cause the private areas of Shen's personal life to be forced to be exposed, and there is a risk of harassment and improper use. He has violated the crime of illegal use of personal information by non-public agencies in the Personal Data Protection Act. He was sentenced to two months in prison and Yike was fined 60,000 yuan.
