The Department of State Services (DSS) wishes to advise the public that it has discovered preparations by some groups in various regions of the nation to conduct violent protests in order to discredit the Federal Government and security services on a variety of socioeconomic issues. According to intelligence assessments, the plotters include some politicians who are frantically trying to rally naïve leaders of students, ethnic-based groupings, youngsters, and disaffected groups for the planned action. Meanwhile, the Service has identified the plot’s ringleaders and is continuing to watch them in order to prevent them from throwing the country into disorder.
