We present a feasibility study to probe quantum entanglement and Belle inequality violation in the process $\textrm{e}^{+}\textrm{e}^{-} \rightarrow \tau^{+}\tau^{-}$ at a center-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s} = 10.579$ GeV. The sensitivity of the analysis is enhanced by applying a selection on the scattering angle $\vartheta$ in the $\tau^{+}\tau^{-}$ center-of-mass frame. We analyze events in which both $\tau$ leptons decay to hadrons, using a combination of decay channels $\tau^{-} \rightarrow \pi^{-}\nu_{\tau}$, $\tau^{-} \rightarrow \pi^{-}\pi^{0}\nu_{\tau}$, and $\tau^{-} \rightarrow \pi^{-}\pi^{+}\pi^{-}\nu_{\tau}$. The spin orientation of the $\tau$ leptons in these decays is reconstructed using the polarimeter-vector method. Assuming a dataset of $200$ million $\tau^{+}\tau^{-}$ events and accounting for experimental resolutions, we expect the observation of quantum entanglement and Bell inequality violation by the Belle-II experiment will be possible with a significance well in excess of five standard deviations.
