Background: Student rioting flared up again in Seoul, the South Korean capital yesterday, (20 May), for the first time since last month's Presidential elections.

More than a thousand students clashed with police in a demonstration at Korea University. They were demanding an end to compulsory military training - an old grievance - and also the release of three student leaders arrested after a baseball match last week.

The demonstration broke up after university professors had appealed to the students not to risk the possibility of the University's being closed down because of the violence.
