The case of a 1-year-old boy who was tortured to death by his nanny and sister surnamed Liu in Taipei City shocked society. Taipei Mayor Chiang Wanan caused controversy when he said that someone advised him not to “turn his father-in-law into the victim.” In this regard, DPP legislator Wu Peiyi said today (15th), “Jiang Wanan pretends to be a father-in-law even though he is clearly the victim. This attitude of evading responsibility is completely unacceptable.”
Taipei Mayor Chiang Wanan immediately posted on Facebook, “Someone advised me to wait for the Executive Yuan and the Ministry of Health and Welfare to make it clear first, and let the Child Welfare Alliance face the controversy properly and not let the father-in-law become the victim.”

Wu Peiyi emphasized that this was a major mistake. Members of the Taipei City Council, including the Kuomintang and the Democratic Progressive Party, and all parties demanded that Chiang Wanan take full responsibility and hoped that Chiang would stop taking over his father-in-law’s seat. It was already too late, more than three months too late.
