National Police Agency Director-General Chen Kuo-en, who inspected the explosion site at Taipei's Songshan station, said he saw an explosive device in the passenger carriage.

"What I saw was on one of the seats, an explosive device, an elongated firecracker. What I saw was about this long," he told reporters while gesturing the length of the device with his hands.
