(Central News Agency, Taipei, 9th, reporters Wu Shu-wei, You Kai-xiang) A military training conscript with dual Taiwanese and Japanese nationality recently claimed he was frequently insulted by his company commander in public. The Army stated that the company commander, Captain Wen, involved in the case, was implicated in multiple disciplinary violations, including public insult, improper leadership, and inappropriate remarks. He was dismissed from his position by the Sixth Army Corps on May 5, with a three-year suspension of employment, effective from midnight on May 6.
On April 20, a military training conscript with dual Taiwanese and Japanese nationality, serving at the Jinliujie Recruit Training Center, posted that he was frequently insulted by his company commander in public. The Army's Sixth Army Corps immediately stated on the same day that upon receiving the report, they took it seriously and immediately transferred the company commander from his main leadership position and would severely punish him. They would also actively refer the public insult case to judicial investigation, showing no leniency.
Military sources pointed out on May 2 that the company commander had been transferred from the Army's 153rd Brigade in Yilan back to his superior unit, placed under the 'custody' of the Army's Sixth Army Corps in Taoyuan, without holding a leadership position or duties. The military had already completed the personnel evaluation meeting, pending the completion of administrative procedures for the decision to take effect.
