The Ministry of National Defense (MND) stated today (2nd) that based on reports from servicemen, the Investigation Bureau, and other national security units, it had uncovered a national suspected of developing an espionage organization in Taiwan through an underground loan house, and promptly adopted damage control measures to eliminate such illegal activity. The case has now been transferred to judicial proceedings, and the MND shall continue to work with the prosecution and investigation authorities.
The MND emphasized that the recent tracking down of this CCP espionage case has highlighted the effectiveness of counterintelligence education by the Armed Forces, and it will continue to train service personnel as such. The MND will also deepen its collective defense mechanism of security investigation and national security to jointly prevent the CCP from infiltrating its ranks to gather intelligence.
