Concerns that a protest planned for Saturday could turn violent were expressed by the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) yesterday, citing a tip received from Taipei City police that a number of Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) politicians could potentially disrupt the march.

“We have heard from police authorities that our rally could be interrupted by the KMT,” DPP spokesperson Tsai Chi-chang (蔡其昌) said. “We are asking they stay away from our event to prevent scuffles or clashes.”
