The man suspected of attacking Hong Kong pastor, Jiang, was Lin. In a conflict in March with Lin, Jiang unintentionally offended Lin by speaking a Cantonese phrase that Lin interpreted as an insult, leading to Lin attacking Jiang with a knife before fleeing to Hualien. Although they reached a settlement and Lin agreed to compensation, Jiang did not withdraw his complaint. The Taipei Prosecutors' Office decided Lin committed assault and applied for a summary judgment. Jiang, previously accused of participating in an unlawful assembly in Causeway Bay in 2021 and for selling provocative books in Mong Kok in 2021, leading to a jail sentence, moved to Taiwan in October 2021. The incident occurred in Taipei in March 2024, resulting in Jiang being stabbed by Lin. Lin, with a criminal record, was arrested in Hualien and faced prosecution in Taiwan. Prosecutors charged Lin with assault due to the attack on Jiang.
