Students clash with police as Roh campaign faces pressure
In Seoul and at Sogang University hundreds of student militants pelted riot police with rocks and firebombs while calling for Roh Tae Woo to withdraw. Police used tear gas to stop protests as opposition leader Kim Dae Jung moved to form a new party to back his bid. The unrest followed government threats to crack down on demonstrations and a push for a neutral cabinet ahead of Korea's mid December presidential vote. Kim Dae Jung was elected chairman of a preparatory committee for a new Party For Peace and Democracy to pursue five core goals including national reconciliation and a just economy.
