The An-kang Reception Room, established in 1974 and operated until the lifting of martial law in 1987, served as a crucial facility for the detention and interrogation of political dissidents, disciplinary violators, and offenders involved in special criminal cases under the authoritarian rule in Taiwan. The Room was key to an understanding of how the government of that era handled political cases. The existing research on the An-kang Reception Room is rather limited, often focusing on survivor interviews, spatial configurations, functions of the existing Room site, or personal work experiences narrated by retired personnel of the Investigation Bureau. This article, utilizing political archives, aims to explore the origins and establishment of the An-kang Reception Room, examine its management and operation during the investigation of political cases, and provide preliminary statistical data related to cases handled by the Room before the lifting of martial law. The study thus clarifies how the Investigation Bureau utilized this facility for detention and interrogation. It supplements existing research and enhances our understanding of the investigative process of political cases. Furthermore, this article highlights the essential roles and responsibilities of administrative and security personnel in the An-kang Reception Room, emphasizing their necessity in establishing a political case. They not only supported investigators in focusing on interrogation work but also maintained the physical and mental well-being of the individuals under interrogation, enabling them to withstand the interrogation and subsequent military trials.
