| Research Abstract |
Although, like Japan, there is a tendency to overemphasize confession in Taiwan, during the revision to the code of criminal procedure in 1998, a new policy was introduced which requires recording of the interrogation conducted by the police and the prosecution. The recording of the full process of interrogation is now taken as a matter of course at the practice level. However, it does not mean that breach of duty had been completely eradicated. Therefore the admissibility of the investigation report is still an issue during the criminal litigation when a breach of duty occurs. In that sense, how to treat the investigation report that failed to follow the new policy has become a matter of concern. On the other hand, there is no proof that the "visualization" of the interrogation process had made it difficult for suspects to confess, and there is no evidence to suggest any disadvantage by introducing this policy.
