Taiwan KMT caucus secretary-general Hsu Yu-chen said Ho Hsin-chun's husband, Hsieh Chun-hsiung, is involved in a nursing tower scandal in Shengang, Changhua. Hsu urged Ho, the DPP's Taichung mayoral candidate, to commit to preventing relatives and aides from manipulating city contracts. Ho's campaign office responded that it was a case of a thief shouting "stop thief."
