On July 6, 2024, Cheng Wen-tsan was released on bail of 5 million due to suspicion of corruption. Chairman of the Straits Exchange Foundation and former Mayor of Taoyuan, Cheng Wen-tsan, was detained by the Taoyuan District Prosecutors Office for alleged corruption, with the Taoyuan District Court ruling in the afternoon for his release on bail of 5 million, with restrictions on residence and travel. Media personnel Huang Yangming questioned a peculiar statement in the court's reasoning, concerning the timeline of events, surveillance, and evidence photos. This delay prompted netizens to question the independence of Taiwan's judiciary system and speculate on political motives behind the case.
