Arrested after taking photos of Shenzhen Armed Police force

In the second half of "Focus interview", the program said Lee went to Shenzhen to film military vehicles and people armed police (PAP) training, then sent the videos back to Taiwan. He was arrested at a ferry terminal while preparing to leave the country. The program said that the state security authorities arrested Lee, and the 16 videos and 48 photos taken were a Chinese state secret. If a professional intelligence agency analyzed the data, they would be able to reveal the number of personnel, the main combat equipment, as well as the intention and the scale of operations of the entire army. Therefore, this action endangered China's national security.

It's breaching due process of law and violating of judicial human rights, said Mainland Affairs Council of Taiwan

According to the Taiwan media ETtoday and SET News, the MAC said that the Chinese government required the involving persons to interview at the official media, admitting their crime, and repent in front of the camera, which does not comply with due process of law. The international community has unanimously condemned this kind of inappropriate accusation of violating judicial human rights. The council also expressed their opposition, calling on the mainland authorities to stop practicing these as soon as possible.

The Mainland Affairs Council emphasizes that it has been in contact with Lee's family since the incident to keep abreast of the case and to provide the necessary assistance.
