On May 24th, 2014, Taiwan experienced its darkest night ever for nearly 30 years of democratic development. In the late night, through the television and cable media, Taiwanese people witnessed the crude brutality and violence of state power in disguise of rule of law and democracy. The riot police was deployed as an insensible tool by the rulers, causing physical injuries to numerous people with great violence, without abiding by the principle of proportionality. As lawyers from the pro-bono group, we cannot endure this outrage any further.
