印太戰略智庫執行長、日本資深媒體人矢板明夫今年7月6日在台中遭暴力襲擊,台中地方法院10日開庭審理此案,嫌犯廖港發當庭全面認罪,法院改採簡式審判程序,預定12月3日宣判。矢板明夫指出,檢方起訴書揭露,這起案件並非一般街頭衝突,而是一起具組織性、計畫性及金錢報酬的「跨境暴力事件」,目的是在台灣社會製造「寒蟬效應」,達到「殺一儆百」的效果。
矢板明夫在臉書發布貼文稱,10日庭審最重要的消息,是檢方起訴書揭露的犯罪事實,以及嫌犯當庭全面認罪。他指出,檢方認定事件是「有組織、有計畫、有報酬的跨境暴力事件」,而非單純的偶發治安事件。
根據矢板明夫轉述,嫌犯廖港發是香港黑幫「和勝和」成員,過去曾接受金主委託,收取報酬毆打指定對象。此次案件更涉及多人分工,分別來台進行踩點、監視及把風,最後由廖港發動手,約定報酬為港幣10萬元(約新台幣42萬元)。
矢板明夫提到,中國國台辦發言人陳斌華曾在事件發生後宣稱,這只是一起因「義憤」引發的普通、偶發治安事件。他認為,10日法庭審理揭露的內容,無疑「重重打臉」國台辦說法,也讓先前部分國民黨立委提出的「可能認錯人」說法站不住腳。
此外,矢板明夫透露,法院10日也詢問他是否願意接受和解,但他選擇拒絕。
矢板明夫坦言,拒絕與香港黑幫成員和解存在一定風險,但強調這並非因為自己特別勇敢,而是認為不能接受以賠償金換取施暴者獲得輕判。
他指出,這起案件早已不只是針對他個人的傷害事件,更涉及台灣及所有民主社會的人民,能否自由表達意見、批評政治,而不必擔心遭受跨境暴力迫害。
矢板明夫表示,如果有人能透過金錢僱用黑幫,迫使持不同意見者噤聲,而犯罪者最終只需支付賠償金就能輕易脫身,恐怕將導致更多新的被害者出現。
他進一步指出,近年來中共對台灣的滲透與施壓,已不僅限於政治、經濟及資訊領域,這起案件也提醒社會大眾,暴力威脅可能出現在日常生活中。
矢板明夫最後強調,捍衛台灣的民主自由是每個人的責任,並呼籲民眾11月28日走進投票所,以民主方式捍衛言論自由,以及習以為常、卻得來不易的生活方式。
