Press release from Taiwan’s New Taipei District Prosecutor’s Office:

"A mainlander nicknamed "K" was dissatisfied with the complainant Huang Hao's public remarks criticizing the Chinese Communist regime. He allegedly paid 450,000 yuan to entrust the defendant Zheng ○

When Huang Yihao was interviewed, he said that after being hit by a car, his first instinct was, "Could it be my old Communist Party looking for me?" However, the other party apologized in a very low-key manner and even invited him to rest in the car. However, he did not know where the other party came from and did not dare to get in. (File photo) "At around 4:54 p.m. that day, the defendant Fan Hao spotted the defendant riding a motorcycle back near his residence and immediately informed the defendant Huang Qing. The defendant Huang Qing then drove into the defendant while the defendant Liao Cheng was videotaping it in the passenger seat. However, the defendant Huang Qing heard the defendant scream during the collision and stopped. As a result, the defendant suffered a right pelvic contusion and no serious injuries occurred."

"The defendant Huang ○ Qing copied the diagnosis certificate on September 12 of the same year and sent it to the defendant You ○ Jie through communication software. The defendant You ○ Jie then transferred it to the defendant Zheng ○ Xuan and then sent it to "K" to report the complainant's injuries and claim compensation. However, because "K" was dissatisfied that the complainant only suffered minor injuries, he refused to pay the agreed balance of NT$200,000."

Let me emphasize again: the political violence carried out by the CCP (or its supporters) has become an unavoidable reality in Taiwanese society. When discussing Taiwan's speech ecology, ignoring this huge threat to freedom of speech would be out of touch with reality.

Faced with such a violent opponent with no bottom line, any commentator who is critical of the CCP needs to be careful. As for people like Shen Boyang who have the potential to become resistance leaders, they must be more careful about their personal safety.

With the CCP's cross-border suppression, people like Shen Boyang who have the potential to become leaders must be even more cautious about their personal safety. (File photo) In addition, I suspect that "K" refused to pay the remaining balance of 200,000 to the thugs, and just deliberately used pretexts to squander the money privately. In fact, the effect of intimidation and harm has been achieved. If you say "no serious injuries" and you don't pay, you are just looking for trouble. "K" will most likely still report to his superiors that the task was successfully completed, the organization's mission was fulfilled, and the money was fully reimbursed.

Of course, only those within the "K" organization will know the truth behind this nonsense.

I hope that "K"'s commander will check with "K" about the flow of the money after seeing the prosecutor's press release. Don’t waste the hard-earned money of the Chinese people.

The New Taipei Examination issued a press release, saying that a Chinese person nicknamed "K" spent 450,000 yuan across the sea to instruct former credit reporting company Zheng Boxuan and others to follow Huang in September this year before he once again criticized the Chinese Communist Party. He was scheduled to cause a car accident and was hospitalized, so that he could not perform on stage.

Open Questions

  • What is the true identity of the behind-the-scenes instigator "K"?
  • Are there other cases of cross-border repression that have not come to light?
