A YOUTUBER known as “Goodnight Chicken” returned to Taiwan after spending over two years in a Cambodian prison only to be arrested by Taiwanese authorities upon his arrival at the airport, Oriental Daily reported.
Chen Nengchuan, 33, who was jailed for staging a fake abduction in Sihanoukville, south-western Cambodia, is wanted by authorities in Taiwan for other alleged offences.
Footage of Chen’s arrival at an airport in Taiwan showed him looking dishevelled and spotting an unkempt beard.
He later posted on social media that it has been 766 days since he left Taiwan before he was able to set foot back home.
After being released from prison, Chen said he spent 36 days being detained by immigration authorities, during which he feared he might not have been able to return to Taiwan at all.
He said what he had experienced was far more complicated, claiming that what was reported in the press was only “the tip of the iceberg”.
Chen also claimed that he suffered setbacks in the past two years during his incarceration, one of which was losing NT$13mil (RM1.6mil) to scammers.
The YouTuber, who is known for putting up paranormal videos, apologised to his supporters for disappointing them.
> A man and a woman who behaved inappropriately at a Chinese cemetery have sparked outrage among Internet users over their scandalous act, Guangming Daily reported.
They were briefly captured on video which showed them semi-naked at the cemetery in broad daylight.
The woman taking the video could be heard yelling at them in Bahasa Malaysia: “How can you have sex here? This is where people pay respects to the dead.”
This led to the man apologising but the woman was unmoved.
She told them that she would be calling the police.
Internet users who saw the video were outraged, criticising the couple for being disrespectful.
