A man suspected of carrying out a knife attack on C-T-B-C Brothers' Passion
Sisters cheerleading team member, Wang Ching-wen has been ordered detained.
The 52 year old man was detained after the Shilin District Court approved a
request for a detention order submitted by the Shihlin District Prosecutors'
Office.
The court says it accepted the request based on strong evidence of attempted
murder and assault (突擊), as well as the risk that he could reoffend.
Wang, who is known by her stage name Wen Wen, was taking part in a private
photo shoot at a photo studio in Taipei on Saturday when she was attacked by
a man with a knife.
The motive for the attack remains under investigation.
