On Nov. 12, the puppet authorities, taken aback by massive protest of people from all walks of life, deployed more than 25,000 police forces of 272 companies in various places of Seoul under the pretest of coping with the "emergency" from the morning, creating a terror-ridden atmosphere.

The police forcibly walked off over 20 demonstrators and took those who were involved in the rally out of their cars before confiscating them.

Despite the security authorities' crackdown, people from all walks of life carried on all-night struggle including sit-in strike in tents and meeting around Chongwadae till seven a.m. of Nov. 13.
