Some 500 people in North Korea attended a public execution of a man and a woman caught reading South Korean propaganda, an activist claimed Sunday citing sources in the North. Choi Sung-yong, the head of Family Assembly Abducted to North Korea said security services rounded up some 500 people including 50 family members of South Korean prisoners of war and abduction victims and made them watch the execution.
The victims were a 45-year-old woman accused of reading a South Korean propaganda leaflet and failing to notify authorities and a high-ranking regional military officer charged with pocketing the dollar bills that were sent along with the leaflets.
Choi said the families of the two were sent to a camp for political prisoners in South Pyongan Province.
Activist groups recently gathered at the border in Gangwon Province and other areas and sent leaflets, one-dollar bills and DVDs to North Korea attached to helium balloons.
"We have information from a source that North Korean leader Kim Jong-il was going to visit Sariwon in North Hwanghae Province soon, and it looks like authorities there held a public execution to warn the people there off any signs of dissent," Choi said. "It seems North Korea is stepping up monitoring and crackdowns on people who read or listen to anti-communist propaganda to ensure the hereditary transfer of power" from Kim to his son Jong-un.
North Korean defectors said anyone who picks up an anti-communist leaflet must notify the authorities on pain of severe punishment. They said North Koreans are taught from a young age that eating South Korean-made cookies causes gut rot while picking up pens or lighters made in the South will make the hands decay.
Gad. did they sent their entire families to the labor camps for it?
Crazies. NK citizens can see the skyglow of Seoul every night...the government propaganda probably insists that is caused by fires lit by anticapitalist rioters, drunks and thieves who roam the streets at night.....
Good Lord. While they starve, they may not recieve even a single American dollar bill. What a nutcase regime the Norks have.
why yes, yes they did.
You start doing this to a population with any access to today’s tech, even yesterday’s tech and it won’t be very long before the Kims will be burning in HELL!!
And we are supposed to negotiate in good faith about nuclear weapons, and trust the security of millions of South Korean civilians to the good will of these people??!!
How do you reason with anyone whose starting position is this?!
It’s not new behavior from the NORKS, but it no less shocking every time it happens!

That this is true can be seen by the rotted guts and missing hands of all the South Koreans.
>> North Korean defectors said anyone who picks up an anti-communist leaflet must notify the authorities on pain of severe punishment.
What say you, Communist Party USA?
When regimes are on their last legs they do stuff like this, they are running on pure fear because they know they are losing their grip on power.
Any hope of change has to come from the military. No way the populace could or would revolt. The Kims may be eaten before they are put on trial.
It sounds like they are free to read the materials, but also required to notify authorities about the materials.
The law sounds much more reasonable that way, doesn't it?
I gave my brother a Tea Party poster this weekend,
I told him that is was ok to put it up now but
if things go wrong, it might get him arrested
in the future.
He understood.
You too can support balloon flights and radio broadcasts over North Korea by donating to the North Korea Freedom Coalition.

In NK the entire families of these 2 people will die in labor camps under horrid conditions for the crime of reading a flier.
Yes they will.
The evil of these NK dogs is unfathomable.
When they fall, it will be a sight to behold.
The French Revolution will seem like a block party by comparison................
