Makiyo and two other bit-part actresses were summoned by Taipei’s prosecutors on Monday night about their friend’s taxi assault case.
Makiyo, Ya-zi (ㄚ子) and Xiang Ying (湘瑩) could face jail terms of up to 12 years if they are found guilty of having encouraged their Japanese friend Takateru Tomoyori to beat up the taxi driver.
The incident occurred last Thursday night, when Makiyo and Tomoyori allegedly refused to wear their seat belts, with the conflict escalating into a physical dispute.
According to a witness, Makiyo kicked the door of the taxi after the group got out of the cab — and Tomoyori then kicked the taxi driver in the head.
They then left the scene without calling for an ambulance.
The driver remains in intensive care after suffering serious head injuries, two fractured ribs, a brain hemorrhage and concussion.
The three celebrities’ behavior has triggered waves of criticism on the Internet and in showbiz.
More than 240,000 netizens joined the anti-Makiyo page on Facebook and rapper Yan GuanxiJY (顏冠希JY) produced a song to ridicule her called Mak!yo suck my D!$%.
Japanese netizens were angered to find that Makiyo is of Japanese and Taiwanese descent, demanding that she withdraw from the showbiz because “No Japanese knows you.”
Senior celebrity figures also condemned them.
It is rumored that Tomoyori is a member of the yakuza, Japan’s mafia.
