NEW TAIPEI (CNA) – A man named Wu attempted to film another individual in a men's restroom at Taipei University in May 2024. The victim noticed a smartphone lens extending from the bottom of the neighboring stall and shouted, causing the suspect to flee. Although Wu claimed he entered the restroom due to physical discomfort and ran out only for fresh air, the court found his explanation unreasonable given the evidence. Surveillance footage showed only the victim and Wu entering and leaving during the incident. The judge sentenced Wu to 6 months in prison, commutable to a fine of NT$1,000 per day, for attempted non-consensual recording of sexual images. The case remains appealable.
