TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — A Vietnamese worker and his Taiwanese employer were arrested on Saturday (Jan. 5) for entering a woman’s home and subjecting her and her daughter to an over six-hour ordeal that included nude photos for blackmail, reported CNA.
A 35-year-old Vietnamese worker surnamed Pham and his 53-year-old Taiwanese employer surnamed Ting (丁) were arrested on Saturday for robbery and forced obscene acts (強制猥褻), after they held a mother and daughter hostage for over six hours and forced former to take nude photos.
On Jan. 2, dressed in rain coats and motorcycle helmets, Pham and Ting were seen on surveillance footage using keys to enter the home of a 50-year-old woman surnamed Huang (黃) in New Taipei City’s Shulin District. When Huang returned to her home at 5:40 p.m., the men pounced on her, and though she tried to resist, they wrapped her in a quilt and beat her.
When Huang’s 23-year-old daughter, surnamed Lee (李) returned home at 7:40 p.m., she noticed that the front door had not been closed and as soon as she entered the house, she noticed that there were signs of a struggle. Before she had time to react, she too was abducted and assaulted by the men. [FULL STORY]
