My Predictions

At any point during the Olympic Torch Relay, will anyone be killed by the ‘Sacred Flame Protection Unit’ ?

Settled as No

No reports that the ‘Sacred Flame Protection Unit’ killed anyone during the relay

Background:

‘Sacred Flame Protection Unit’
Fleeing the public and accusations of thuggery were not what Beijing municipal and Olympic organizing committee authorities had in mind last August when they held a public ceremony to swear in the Beijing Olympic Games Sacred Flame Protection Unit. The special squad was made up of closely vetted volunteers from the special forces academy of the paramilitary People's Armed Police, state-controlled news media reported.
