The National Solidarity for the Elimination of Discrimination against Persons with Disabilities held a protest on the morning subway commute at Hyehwa Station in Seoul on the 27th, urging the inclusion of disability rights in the budget. On the same day, the group walked from Gyeongbokgung Station to visit the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency in protest. This was in response to Seoul Police Chief Kim Kwang-ho's statement on the 20th regarding the group's protest, saying it was a situation of "tying up citizens' feet to enforce their will" and that "illegal acts will be pursued to the ends of the earth for legal action." /Reporter Moon Honam munonam@
