Pleading refers to Chen calling on others to march peacefully

The defense pleaded that the defendant's behavior was a civil disobedience, and he was loyal to his own ideas and bravely assumed responsibility.

Although the main road was blocked for 10 hours in the demonstration, it was pointed out that large-scale demonstrations would inevitably cause road blockages, and that the defendant was only a participant in the role of incitement and violent behavior, and the violent behavior of other participants should not be attributed to the defendant.

The defense continued that the defendant had called on others to march peacefully, rationally, and non-violently. There was no violence during the whole procession, and the case also involved prosecution delays. It is hoped that the sentence of this case and other cases of the defendant can be executed at the same time.
