The New Taipei District Prosecutors Office has indicted Taiwanese accomplices involved in the operation against Huang Yihao, with sentences ranging from 2 years and 7 months to more than 5 years and 6 months.

The Taiwan New Taipei District Prosecutors Office indicted five people, accusing mainland Chinese national "K" of offering NT$450,000 to hire someone to stage a fake car crash out of dissatisfaction with Huang Yihao's satire of Xi Jinping, and refusing to pay the NT$200,000 balance because Huang suffered only minor injuries.

On September 15, a netizen reported on social media that a pothole had appeared on Gongyuan Road in Xinzhuang District, New Taipei City. Councilor Chen Shih-hsun responded within three hours and completed the repair four days later, sparking discussions among Chinese netizens about the communication mechanisms and efficiency of officials on both sides of the Taiwan Strait.

Directed by a mainland figure identified as "K", the suspects tailed crosstalk performer Huang Yihao, and on September 11 near his residence in New Taipei they divided up duties — keeping lookout, ramming a vehicle and filming. Huang suffered a contusion to his right pelvis; afterwards the other party obtained a medical certificate through a traffic insurance claim and sent it back to K.

On August 11, 2026, the New Taipei District Court in Taiwan issued a first-instance verdict, finding that Xu Chunying, a former mainland Chinese national who had served as a Taiwan People's Party cadre, colluded with Chinese Communist Party officials to interfere in Taiwan's elections and was involved in underground currency exchange, and sentenced her to 7 years in prison under the Anti-Infiltration Act and other laws.
