The Central Prosecutor's Office alleged that a man who is also a member of the "Washenghe" gang and the leader of the "Action Team", whose real name and age are unknown, and who calls himself "Chen Weihao", was dissatisfied with Akio Yaita's frequent public comments on cross-strait current affairs and political speeches.

"Chen Weihao" contacted a man surnamed Wu (33 years old) on July 1 this year. Wu formed a cross-border violence group and invited Liao Gangfa and others to join. The division of labor was that Wu was responsible for commanding and assigning work; Liao was responsible for surveying the scene and on-site dispatching and execution of beatings; Kuang Nan (34 years old) was responsible for actually beating Akio Yaita; Feng Nan (30 years old) and Wang Nan (31 years old) were responsible for watching and reporting the execution situation.
Five people from this group entered Taiwan in batches from July 1 to 4 this year, and originally planned to leave the country immediately after completing their mission on July 5. On July 4th and 5th, Liao Nan and others went to the Yongfeng Inn Hotel and surrounding areas to survey the site, confirm the movement route, and wait. It was expected that Kuang Nan (34 years old) would attack Akio Yaita with a glass bottle, but Akio Yaita did not appear.
Feng Nan and Kuang Nan decided to withdraw because they thought the risk was too high. Wu Nan, who convened the group, reprimanded everyone in the group not to back down, saying that this "cannot be explained to the superiors." Later, Wang Nan checked online and learned that Yaita Akio would be a lecturer on July 6. Wu Nan said that if he was willing to stay one more day, each person would be given an additional HKD 5,000. However, Feng Nan and Kuang Nan were still worried about their identities being exposed, so they took a flight to leave the country with Wu Nan on July 5.
Wu Nan then expressed to Liao Gangfa that if he personally did it, "the superiors" were willing to pay HK$100,000. Liao Nan agreed because he was eager for high rewards, and he actually attacked Akio Yaita, while Wang Nan assisted in watching and reporting back.
