Well, to make it short: last Sunday (12.09) THE MAIN MTU RALLY/DEMO took place in downtown Seoul.
Approx. 500 KCTU/civil right/student/left political activists (*) - among them about 100 migrant workers - protested against the current massive wave of repression by the S.K. gov't against MTU and demanded the immediate release of MTU's leadership, imprisoned since Nov. 27 in Cheongju Detention Center.
