Chen Qiyuan, the former Penghu County investigation team leader of the Bureau of Investigation, was charged with corruption and restricted from leaving the country after he mentioned that an inmate and his family members had sex in the restroom of the investigation station and that he also helped take care of each other's children and was a watchdog. He applied for the lifting of immigration control five times, and the Qiaotou District Court once again ruled to extend the restriction on leaving the country and overseas for eight months.

It is understood that from 2019 to 2021, Chen Qiyuan worked at the Chiayi County Police Station and was suspected of receiving mobile phones from the family members of inmates surnamed Chen and others in Taipei Prison. He also used the opportunity of interrogation to arrange meetings between the two parties, and even allowed the inmates to have sex with his wife and mistress at the Taoyuan City Police Station and Nanjing Station, while he helped take care of the other person's children and looked after them.

In June 2023, Mr. Chen was prosecuted by the Qiaotou District Prosecutor's Office for violating corruption regulations and was transferred to the hospital for trial. The judge found that detention was not necessary and ruled that 400,000 yuan be released on bail pending summons, but restrictions on leaving the country, traveling overseas, and contact with witnesses were imposed.

Member Chen has applied for the lifting of immigration control five times recently, claiming that he has been suspended from the Ministry of Justice's Investigation Bureau and that he has family ties to prevent him from fleeing. He has attended court sessions in the district court on time and requested the lifting of immigration control.

The Collegiate Court of the Qiaotou District People's Court believed that Chen was involved in a serious case that seriously damaged the credibility of the judiciary. He has also served as an investigator for a long time and is familiar with the operation of criminal justice procedures. He is also better able than ordinary people to understand possible loopholes in relevant compulsory punishment procedures and the reasons for escape. The pipeline, coupled with the fact that it involves contract bribery, the annihilation of evidence and other behaviors, and the connections established during his tenure, may lead him to flee abroad through the pipeline to avoid trial. Therefore, it was once again ruled to extend the restriction on leaving the country and overseas for eight months starting from October 11.
