日本法務省擬明年試驗 讓假釋性犯罪者攜帶GPS設備防再犯

日本法務省將於明年試驗讓假釋性犯罪者攜帶GPS設備,研究防止再犯的成效,但隱私與更生平衡引發討論。

Quick Look

日本法務省計畫於明年展開實驗,讓取得同意的假釋性犯罪者隨身攜帶GPS設備,以研究位置資訊在防止再犯上的成效,但此舉同時引發隱私保護與社會更生等議題的討論。

(中央社東京13日綜合外電報導)日本法務省決定於明年開始進行實驗,讓正在假釋期間的性犯罪者帶著GPS設備,藉此研究如何運用取得的位置資訊以防止再犯,但如何在保護隱私之間取得平衡,也成為一大課題。

日本「讀賣新聞」、AMEBA TIMES報導,這項實驗的對象僅限於已取得本人同意的假釋者。

日本法務省表示,實驗中讓實驗對象持有的設備,並非強制裝在身體上的裝置,而是預計採用可以隨身攜帶的設備。目前仍在研議具體適用於哪些性犯罪。

日本政府2023年經內閣會議通過的「第二次再犯防止推進計畫」中,已將參考海外利用全球定位系統(GPS)取得性犯罪者位置資訊的案例,納入性犯罪者處置措施。

法務省將根據這項方針進行實驗,如果認為GPS有望達到防止再犯的效果,將進一步考慮正式導入。

法務省調查顯示,在因性犯罪被判有罪的人當中,5年內再次因性犯罪被判有罪的比例為13.9%。另一方面,在再次犯罪者中,有67.4%是因性犯罪再犯。

假釋者必須接受保護觀察官或保護司面談,並申報生活狀況等資訊。若透過取得位置資訊掌握再犯徵兆,除了能提醒假釋者本人注意,也有望協助保護觀察官等人進行輔導。

另一方面,如何在防止再犯與保護假釋者隱私之間取得平衡,也將成為今後研議的課題。

日本監獄人權中心事務局長、律師大野鐵平表示,讓這些人攜帶GPS裝置,表面上看來可以防止再犯,也可能讓假釋審查時,更容易認定其再犯風險已降低。

但他也表示擔憂:「如果未來這項措施延伸到刑期結束後,就會產生隱私問題。如果以汙名化形式將人與社會隔離,可能妨礙其更生與回歸社會。」

另一方面,近畿大學資訊學研究所所長夏野剛則針對性犯罪的特殊性表示:「與搶劫等犯罪不同,性犯罪、性衝動接近本能。一般人正常思考根本不會做,但有些人卻會做,所以他們跨越『不能做』這條界線的門檻很低。」

因此夏野剛強調,「除非持續給予『不可以做』的壓力,否則他們就有可能再次犯案。因此,性犯罪必須與其他犯罪區分開來思考」。

長期治療性犯罪加害者的醫師齋藤章佳也指出:「接受性犯罪治療的人,基本上都有治療動機,認為自己『想要改變』。但監獄裡也有完全不想改變的人,甚至有些人在服刑期間就揚言出獄後會再犯。這些人反覆進出監獄10次、15次,是超高風險族群。」
