Description Hours prior to being forcibly removed by police in riot gear brandishing water cannons, protestors at the ROC Executive Yuan (行政院) occupied the area surrounding the building, in protest of the government's forceful passage of the Cross-Strait Service Trade Agreement. The aloof government response, led by ROC Presdent and KMT Chairman Ma Ying-Jeou (馬英九), has led to incitement of anger by students and other citizens alike. Violence broke out early morning on March 24, as policemen, under orders from Ma Ying-Jeou and ROC Premier Jiang Yi-Hua (江宜樺), forcibly removed all demonstrators from the grounds of the Executive Yuan, leading to hundreds of injuries. Many student demonstrators were battered and bloodied, while still others, including a TSU (Taiwan Solidarity Union) legislator, lost consciousness during the chaotic struggle. While no deaths occurred, many citizens now regard this forceful response to peaceful demonstration as an act of police brutality on the people. Tensions are high as protests at the ROC Legislative Yuan (立法院) head into a second week.
