On July 4, 2024, at around 6:11 am, a woman riding the Taipei Metro was groped by a man for 207 seconds. Initially thinking it was accidental, she moved away, but the man persisted in touching her buttocks, prompting the woman to grab his hand and ask fellow passengers for help. Surveillance footage showed the man continuing the assault despite the woman's efforts to evade him. He was subsequently charged with forced indecency, as the act was deemed not just harassment but for gratifying his own desires. This incident highlights the importance of respecting bodily autonomy and the consequences of inappropriate behavior towards women on public transportation.
