Chiang Kai-shek’s great-grandson indicted in Taiwan
Andrew Chiang You-ching charged with threating staff at his old school
A great-grandson of former Taiwanese leader Chiang Kai-shek was charged on Thursday with making threats against staff at his old school.
Andrew Chiang You-ching was detained for questioning early this month after the Taipei American School told police he had threatened the institution and its staff.
The 23-year-old was later released on bail of NT$80,000 (HK$20,906).
“Since August, Andrew Chiang had frequently posted threats on his Facebook page and e-mailed them to relevant school staff,” prosecutors in the Taipei District Court said in the indictment.
If convicted he could face a jail term of up to four years.
Chiang is the youngest of the three children of Chiang Hsiao-yung, the grandson of Kuomintang leader Chiang Kai-shek.
