Central News Agency (Taipei, 28th) Taipei District Prosecutors Office Chief Prosecutor Wang Chun-li led several prosecutors to the Songshan Precinct of the Taipei City Police Department today to hold a seminar on election enforcement. Wang urged police to strictly monitor abnormal household registration changes to prevent 'ghost voters' from undermining election fairness.
In addition to Wang, attendees included Chief Prosecutor Li Chung-jen, the executive secretary for election enforcement; Lin Yen-chun, the regional supervising chief prosecutor; Prosecutor Huang Yi-hua; and Taipei City Police Commissioner Lin Yen-tien, who led the department's election enforcement supervisors, along with heads of the Songshan Precinct and its five subordinate police stations.
During the meeting, the Songshan Precinct reported on the election situation in its jurisdiction and key enforcement plans. Lin Yen-chun reported on the key points of this election enforcement work. Finally, they exchanged views with frontline police officers on the problems and challenges faced in investigating election interference, aiming to refine enforcement strategies, improve measures, and enhance cooperation.
Taipei District Prosecutors Office pointed out that the Songshan Precinct's jurisdiction, mainly Songshan District, is a transportation hub that combines traditional culture and modern urban essence. It includes Songshan Airport, Songshan Railway Station, Taipei Arena, Songshan Cultural and Creative Park, and Raohe Street Night Market, covering 33 neighborhoods with a total population of 186,886. Analyzing past election enforcement cases, this area has seen incidents of voting interference, election violence, ghost voters, and defamation (including black letters and fake news).
In his speech, Wang stated that several cases of false household registration occurred in Songshan District during past local elections. Enforcement agencies should establish a reporting window for abnormal household registration with household registration offices in advance for this local election. Through real-time reporting from household registration offices, they should plan enforcement actions early to uncover hidden ghost voters, vote-buying, and other illegal acts.
Wang also instructed enforcement agencies to prioritize both the crackdown on and prevention of vote-buying, and to implement the four key points of the election interference enforcement guidelines issued by the Ministry of Justice. Through strong enforcement, they should deter illegal acts. Additionally, they should inventory public and private sectors in their jurisdiction, connect diverse networks, and through a resource-sharing model, comprehensively promote election interference enforcement to let the public feel the government's determination and attitude toward strictly investigating election interference.
