Shen Boyang was smeared for "having gone to the iron with women" and the four-pronged cat picked up the rumor monger. Shen's team plans to take legal action

The 2026 nine-in-one general election has entered the countdown stage, and various rumors and slanders have emerged one after another. A netizen posted a rumor on Threads that Shen Boyang, the Taipei mayoral candidate of the Democratic Progressive Party, had gone to a motel with a woman, but did not provide any concrete evidence. Sijimao questioned whether the relevant remarks were suspected of spreading rumors and smearing, and suggested that Shen Boyang's team directly report to the police.

Sijimao posted a screenshot of Threads, showing that the account posted a post under the topic of "campaign advertising", first saying, "Everyone knows that the DPP is good at elections," and then mentioned the 319 shooting, questioning "Which gangster shot it?" Then the topic changed, alleging that Shen Boyang "according to the gossip of the credit bureau, he also went to motels with girls," and used this to criticize Shen Boyang's personality and election operations.

The account also claimed in the post that he had worked for China Times Group, claiming that "this is what I saw and heard with my own eyes at China Times Group" and further alleged that politicians were worried about state secrets being exposed. However, the statement in the screenshot was not accompanied by relevant evidence, and it was impossible to prove that Shen Boyang was involved in the incident.

Another screenshot showed that a netizen left a message reminding "but Shen Boyang has no evidence...it's not a good idea to say this", and worried that the person who posted the message might be sued. The account responded, "I have it, I've seen it, welcome." It also said, "I really want to buy the evidence," but was worried about being attacked. In response to netizens pointing out that if there was evidence, it would cause major controversy, the account continued to respond and did not disclose the alleged evidence in the screenshots.

Sijimao said that the user of the account was suspected to be named Emma Huang, and said that the other party had closed the Threads account. He also pointed out the user's self-reported academic experience and work background based on past online posts, and questioned why the other party spread unsubstantiated accusations before the election.

Sichamao finally called on Shen Boyang’s campaign team to collect evidence on the relevant posts and report them directly to the police. Political worker Zhou Xuan also left a message on the post, "Thank you, the team's legal affairs have been handling it early in the morning."
