A retired military officer in Taoyuan was sentenced by the court for failing to report for training. Wang, a former professional soldier who reached the rank of officer, was convicted for evading military service over a decade ago before retiring. Despite being called up for training in 2022, he did not show up, leading to a 2-month prison sentence and a fine of 60,000 NT dollars. The judge emphasized that as a reserve soldier, Wang's failure to attend the training negatively impacted national defense security and the effectiveness of reserve management, leading to the conviction.
