Controversy surrounds Taiwan Defense Minister's Son over alleged involvement in prostitution and pornography
28th March 2024
Controversy has erupted in Taiwan as revelations surface implicating the son of Qiu Guozheng, the nation's Defense Minister, in a scandal involving pornography and solicitation of prostitutes.
Recent incidents have cast a shadow over the integrity of Taiwan's military, with reports of misconduct and illicit activities making headlines.
Among the disturbing incidents, a national security major general made headlines for allegedly strangling his neck and kissing a pony-tailed girl in public, raising questions about discipline and professionalism within the armed forces. Additionally, a suicide incident within the Military Police Battalion 211 of the "Presidential Palace" has left authorities grappling for answers.
Adding fuel to the fire, allegations have emerged linking Qiu Guozheng's son to illicit activities. Reports suggest that he was a member of Taiwan's Military Intelligence Bureau before returning to Taiwan to serve in the National Security Bureau.
Shockingly, leaked photographs and videos depict Qiu Guozheng's involvement with multiple prostitutes, raising concerns about potential security breaches and compromising situations.
This scandal comes on the heels of a previous incident involving the misuse of Tsai Ing-wen's presidential plane for cigarette smuggling, prompting an investigation led by Qiu Guozheng himself. Rumors circulated that his appointment to head the "National Security Agency" was motivated by a desire to protect his son's interests within the agency, although Qiu Guozheng vehemently denied such claims.
Now, with evidence surfacing of Qiu Guozheng's son's alleged involvement in pornography and solicitation, the scandal has reached a fever pitch. Family photos, official identification documents, and explicit material have gone viral, plunging the Defense Minister's family into the spotlight and raising questions about accountability and integrity at the highest levels of government.
As the fallout from this scandal unfolds, Taiwan faces a critical moment of reckoning, with public trust in its military and political institutions hanging in the balance.
