Brawl rocks parliament over referendum on fourth nuclear power station on earthquake-prone island.Taiwan's politicians have punched each other and wrestled in a parliamentary brawl over a controversial bill on a nuclear power plant.
Dozens of politicians from opposing camps clashed on Friday, as they tried to seize the chamber's podium, splashing water from cups and plastic bottles at each other.
Some shouted: "Support for Nuke 4 harms children", in reference to the name of the country's new, nearly complete nuclear power station, near Taipei.
Two men from opposing parties were locked in a brawl and fell on to the floor while scuffling before they were pulled apart by others in footage broadcast live on television.
The parliament was scheduled to vote on Friday on whether to hold a referendum on whether to finish building the fourth nuclear plant of the densely populated island of 23 million people.
Nuclear power has long been a contentious issue in earthquake-troubled Taiwan and became more so following the Fukushima nuclear disaster in Japan in 2011.
