TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — A Vietnamese migrant worker has been indicted for allegedly sexually

assaulting a Taiwanese college student while her boyfriend was being massaged on the other side of the curtain.

Unaccounted for Vietnamese worker Nguyen Minh Duc, 31, has been indicted by the Taipei District Prosecutor's Office on charges of aggravated forcible sexual intercourse (強制性交罪) among other crimes. Prosecutors allege that he used a false identity after absconding from his employer to work in a massage parlor.

Nguyen came to Taiwan in August 2014 as a migrant worker. However, in August of 2015, his employer reported that he had absconded from the worksite and that his residence permit was revoked.

In order to avoid arrest and secure employment, Nguyen obtained a copy of the ID of a Taiwanese national surnamed Ho (何) from a compatriot. In July of this year, Nguyen used the fake ID to land a job at a massage parlor on Kaifeng Street in Taipei City.    [FULL  STORY]
