A woman in Taiwan was recently sentenced to three months imprisonment for using a megaphone to hurl insults at neighbours late at night, the country’s media reported.
Imagine sleeping peacefully in your bed and being jolted into consciousness by loud swearing in the middle of the night.
This was the nightmare endured by dozens of residents of Kaohsiung, Taiwan, who had to put up with the antics of a crazed neighbour.
A Taiwanese court of law recently ruled against the woman surnamed Chen who reportedly installed sound-amplifying equipment on the balcony of her home in Kaohsiung and used it to insult her neighbours in the night, at least three times per week for over two years.
In May 2024, Chen began using a megaphone to insult several neighbours with whom she had disputes, but the sound coming from her balcony was so loud that it affected the peace of several other households in her neighborhood.
After enduring the situation for over two years, dozens of neighbours filed a joint complaint with the local police.
The case eventually ended up in court, where Chen admitted to using a megaphone to curse at her neighbours at late hours of the night, but claimed she did so only occasionally and only because the noise caused by them had prevented her from resting properly.
The judge ruled that by deliberately and repeatedly using amplified equipment to broadcast abusive language during late-night hours, Chen had gone beyond what society deems reasonable or even tolerable.
She was sentenced to three months imprisonment commutable to a $3600 fine, but she can still appeal the sentence.
