一. The Four Core Elements
1.Repeated or Continuous Actions: The behavior must be repetitive or continuous. One-off or isolated incidents generally do not qualify. The key factor is that the perpetrator disregards the victim’s rejection.
2.Against the Victim’s Will: The victim has clearly expressed rejection (e.g., declining dates, ignoring messages, verbal warnings), yet the perpetrator persists.
3.Related to Sex or Gender: The motivation involves infatuation, pursuit, gender bias, or emotional disputes. Purely financial disputes or neighbor arguments fall under other laws.
4.Causing Fear and Impacting Daily Life: The behavior causes psychological fear or a sense of oppression, sufficiently disrupting the victim’s daily life, work, or social activities.
二. The Eight Statutory Behavioral Patterns
If the above elements are met, engaging in any of the following behaviors may violate the law:
1.Surveillance and Observation: Monitoring, stalking, or tracing the whereabouts of a specific person.
2.Stalking and Loitering: Waiting, tailing, or loitering near the victim’s residence, school, workplace, etc.
3.Discrimination and Disparagement: Mocking, verbally abusing, discriminating against, hating, or disparaging the victim.
4.Communication Harassment: Constantly disturbing the victim via phone, fax, internet, or other devices.
5.Inappropriate Pursuit: Repeatedly demanding dates, communication, or other forms of pursuit.
6.Sending Unwanted Items: Forcibly sending, leaving behind, or broadcasting items or images to the victim without request.
7.Defamation: Distributing or displaying messages and objects that harm the victim’s reputation.
8.Misuse of Personal Data: Misusing the victim’s personal data without consent to order goods or services under their name.
三. Response and Protection Mechanisms
If you experience stalking or harassment, please call 110 immediately to report it to the police, who will initiate an investigation:
1.Written Warning: The police may issue a formal written warning to the perpetrator upon their own authority or at the victim’s request.
2.Protection Order: If the perpetrator offenses again within two years after the written warning, the victim can apply directly to the court for a protection order.
3.Criminal Liability: Standard stalking and harassment behaviors are punishable by up to 1 year in prison. If the perpetrator carries a weapon or dangerous object, the penalty increases to up to 5 years in prison.
