Taipei prosecutors have indicted two men over an attack on a comedy show involving paint mixed with human feces.
The Taipei District Prosecutors Office says a 33-year-old man hired a 35-year-old man to throw the mixture at the venue in May, paying him 50-thousand NT.
Prosecutors say the attack came after clips of comedian Huang Yi-hao (黃逸豪) mocking Chinese leader Xi Jinping went viral online.
They have recommended prison terms of 22 and 20 months for the two men.
Prosecutors say the attack was intended to intimidate Huang and restrict freedom of speech in Taiwan.
