Taiwanese celebrity's son released on bail after indictment

Sun Anzuo, the son of well-known Taiwanese entertainers Sun Peng and Di Ying, has been released on bail of NT$1 million (approximately $31,000 USD) after being indicted on charges including endangering public safety, threatening the public, and illegal firearm possession.

The indictment stems from an incident last month when Sun allegedly posted a video on Instagram showcasing a flamethrower emitting a large flame. He was subsequently arrested. Upon his release from court on bail on June 29, Sun briefly stated, "I have never hurt anyone, nor do I want to hurt anyone. I believe the court will give me a fair judgment."

Following his son's release, singer Di Ying posted on Facebook early on June 30. The post featured a video of herself wearing academic regalia, apparently from her graduation from Asia University's EMBA program. The caption indicated she had completed her studies in business administration. The post garnered supportive comments from netizens, with some expressing relief that her son was home and encouraging her to stay strong.

Sun Anzuo, who has legally changed his name to Sun Jianhao, faces serious charges. The legal proceedings will continue as the court deliberates on the case. His parents, Sun Peng and Di Ying, are prominent figures in Taiwan's entertainment industry, and their son's legal troubles have garnered significant media attention.
