日本警察厅于周四表示，将于下周开始讨论是否要求被认定为高风险的跟踪狂佩戴GPS追踪设备并接受强制心理辅导。
The National Police Agency said on Thursday it would start discussions next week on whether stalkers deemed to be high-risk will be required to wear GPS tracking devices and undergo mandatory counseling.
由八名成员组成的小组将于周一举行首次会议，他们将研究是否可以在日本的反跟踪法下引入电子监控，如果可以，将探讨如何确定哪些违法者需要接受追踪，以及当加害者接近受害者时如何向受害者发出警报。
An eight-member panel, which will hold its first meeting on Monday, will examine whether electronic monitoring could be introduced under Japan’s anti-stalking laws, and if so, how to determine which offenders would be subject to tracking and how victims would be alerted when perpetrators approach them.
拟议中的监控系统将允许当局追踪被认为构成严重威胁的违法者，并可能要求他们佩戴具备GPS功能的设备，当他们进入受害者附近的指定区域时，该设备将触发警报。
The proposed monitoring system would allow authorities to track offenders deemed to pose a serious threat, potentially requiring them to wear GPS-enabled devices that would trigger warnings when they enter a designated area near a victim.
然而，几个关键细节尚未确定，包括如何将违法者分类为高风险、他们必须佩戴设备的持续时间、是否需要法院批准以及警方是否能够获取其实时位置数据。
However, several key details have yet to be determined, including how offenders would be classified as high risk, how long they would be required to wear the devices, whether court approval would be necessary and whether police would have access to their real-time location data.
该小组成员将包括法律和刑事政策学者、心理健康与辅导专家、在受害者支持方面经验丰富的律师，以及2012年在神奈川县逗子市被一名跟踪狂杀害的一名女性的家属。
The panel will include law and criminal policy scholars, mental health and counseling specialists, lawyers experienced in victim support and a family member of a woman murdered by a stalker in the city of Zushi, Kanagawa Prefecture, in 2012.
日本正在借鉴海外的系统。韩国于2023年对某些跟踪违法者引入了电子监控，允许法院命令加害者佩戴具备GPS功能的电子脚镣。德国和西班牙也对跟踪或家庭暴力违法者实行了电子监控系统，允许警方在加害者接近受害者时进行干预。
Japan is looking to overseas systems for guidance. South Korea introduced electronic monitoring for certain stalking offenders in 2023, allowing courts to order perpetrators to wear GPS-enabled ankle bracelets. Germany and Spain also operate electronic monitoring systems for stalking or domestic violence offenders, allowing police to intervene when perpetrators approach victims.
该小组的成立是继政府于7月宣布的紧急措施之后进行的，这些措施呼吁尽早引入GPS监控并加强干预，以防止跟踪案件升级为严重的暴力事件。这些措施的出台部分是因为3月份一名21岁女子在东京池袋地区的宝可梦中心商店被其前男友杀害，尽管该男子此前曾被捕并接到过限制令。
The panel’s establishment follows emergency measures announced by the government in July calling for the early introduction of GPS monitoring and stronger intervention to prevent stalking cases from escalating into serious violence. The measures were prompted in part by the March killing of a 21-year-old woman by her ex-boyfriend at a Pokemon Center store in Tokyo’s Ikebukuro district in March, despite the man having previously been arrested and issued a restraining order.
除了GPS追踪外，专家小组还将研究是否应在法律上要求某些违法者接受旨在解决强迫行为和控制倾向的心理治疗或辅导。
Alongside GPS tracking, the expert panel will examine whether certain offenders should be legally required to undergo psychological treatment or counseling aimed at addressing obsessive behavior and controlling tendencies.
|自2024年以来，警方一直鼓励所有收到限制令的个人寻求治疗或辅导，并将他们转介至医疗机构和其他支持服务。然而，这并非强制性的，参与率仍然很低，在2024年被转介的3271人中，只有184人这样做，比例仅为5.6%。
Since 2024, police have encouraged all individuals issued restraining orders to seek treatment or counseling, referring them to medical institutions and other support services. However, it’s not mandatory, and participation rates have remained low, with only 184 of 3,271 people referred in 2024 doing so, a rate of just 5.6%.
2025年，警方接到与跟踪相关的咨询22,881起，而限制令的数量比前一年上升了25.8%，达到创纪录的3,037起。警方因违反反跟踪法抓获了创纪录的1,546人，标志着连续第四年增长。
In 2025, police received 22,881 consultations related to stalking, while the number of restraining orders rose 25.8% from the previous year to a record 3,037. Police apprehended a record 1,546 people for violating the anti-stalking law, marking the fourth consecutive annual increase.
