A man gets dragged away by the police after refusing to leave the site of a sit-in protest against Taiwan President Ma Ying-jeou in front of the presidential office in Taipei May 19, 2009. The opposition Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) concluded its 24-hour sit-in on Monday night but protesters angry over the jailing of Taiwan's former pro-independence president Chen Shui-bian pending his corruption trial refused to leave the site.
