A habitual thief from Changhua, previously incarcerated for drug-related offenses, was caught stealing in Taichung and Changhua. Despite being apprehended for theft, he was not detained on the grounds that the items stolen and the crime itself were considered 'minor.' This decision by the prosecutor not to apply for detention has raised concerns among the public about the repeated offenses and drug-related activities of the thief, sparking criticism of the judiciary for potentially endangering public safety by releasing such criminals.
