At present, Chen and Yang have been subject to criminal coercive measures in accordance with the law on suspicion of extortion, and the case is under further investigation.
According to previous reports, in December 2025, a couple in Taizhou, Zhejiang Province spent 17 yuan to buy 8 pounds of baby cabbage online.
After eating, both of them developed systemic bleeding, pulmonary hydration and other symptoms at the same time, and both were sent to ICU for rescue.
The hospital diagnosis results showed that both the couple were poisoned by rat poison, and rodenticide ingredients were detected in the husband's blood.
Further investigation by the police revealed that it was the husband who poisoned the business, and the two conspired to use this method to demand huge compensation from merchants and platforms.
The merchants have closed their stores due to the impact of public opinion and have become "invisible victims" of the incident.
