There have been frequent reports of police officers committing suicide in China recently, and the police’s physical and mental health has once again attracted attention from the outside world. Today (14th) it was reported that a 26-year-old police officer surnamed Zhong from the Changhua County and Meishen Port Stations disappeared for four days without any reason while on duty and was found to have fallen into a river and died several days ago. What happened to the Taiwan police?
In fact, this is the fourth tragic suicide in the police force this year:
On January 10 this year, a 27-year-old police officer named Li from the Houde Police Station in Sanchong District, New Taipei City committed suicide. On January 18, a 30-year-old police officer surnamed Lin from the Muzha Division of the National Highway Police Station was found to have shot himself with a gun in the dormitory toilet. He was shot in the head and showed no signs of life.
On February 3, the 52-year-old chief of the Taichung Third Branch Qingong Police Station, surnamed Qiu, was sued for a crackdown on drunk driving. Initially, reconciliation failed, and he was in a low mood. Before committing suicide, he sent a message to his wife, “Madam, I’m sorry.” He was finally discovered. He committed suicide in his dormitory.
On March 31, a 31-year-old female police officer surnamed Liang from the Tian Branch of the Madou Police Station in Tainan was ordered to drop out of school because she was accused of stealing 1,000 yuan. However, she suffered a physical and mental collapse during the administrative relief process and was eventually found covered in blood and collapsed. Apparently dead in the sleeping car.
On April 10, a 26-year-old police officer surnamed Zhong from the Changhua and US police stations in Changhua did not turn in on time on the 11th. The police reviewed the surveillance footage near his residence and discovered that he had fallen into the river the night before and was dead when rescued. Signs of life.
The investigation report of the Supervisory Yuan pointed out that a total of 52 police officers committed suicide in our country in the past 10 years, and 22 police officers committed suicide in the past 4 years. On average, more than 5 police officers commit suicide every year. Supervisory committee members Ye Dahua and Chen Jingjun recently stated that the police are a high-risk group for physical and mental stress. Due to the rotating nature of the grassroots police officers, day and night are reversed, and their work and rest are irregular. In addition, there are many emergencies such as high pressure on project work and performance and suspension of rest, which cannot be ignored. The suicide risk factors accumulated over a long period of time by police officers due to poor working environment.
Supervisory Committee members Ye Dahua and Chen Jingjun further pointed out in the investigation report that while police officers continued to commit suicide, only 5 cases were listed for counseling or counseling resources were provided during the period, and neither of them noticed anything unusual about the police officers or took any measures before the incident. Preventive measures are enough to show the insufficiency of the police’s psychological assistance mechanism in identifying high-risk objects. According to the “Police Suicide Prevention Manual”, it is estimated that about 10,000 police officers across the country are emotionally distressed, and 6,000 of them have suicidal tendencies. However, prevention and treatment funds and service coverage are seriously insufficient. Only 300-300 people receive psychological counseling every year. 600 people.
The Supervisory Committee emphasized that the Police Service did not pay attention to the mental health needs of police personnel, which violated the provisions of the Mental Health Law and the Suicide Prevention Law. It must review the rationality of the performance evaluation and service system, and pay attention to the impact of work stress, long-term insomnia and other risk factors on police officers. The focus on personnel health supervises various police agencies to improve deficiencies in internal management and service arrangements to ensure the mental health of police officers.
