Exclusive: Drinking during Kims Mourning Period... Vice Defense Minister Shot in Public
A Deputy Chief of Staff also shot for a sexual misconduct
Kim Jong-eun, Vice Chairman of Partys Central Defense Commission, purged senior military figures in an attempt to establish discipline in military after Kim Jong-ils death, according to sources on Mar. 20.

We have intelligence that a Deputy Chief of General Staffs was arrested for committing a sexual misconduct during Kims mourning period and shot. General Staffs command N. Koreas military operations during war-time period, receiving direct orders from the Commander-in-chief (Kim Jong-eun.) There are 6~7 Deputy Chief of Staffs in charge of different areas. They have ranks of three or four star generals and on a par with Assistant Cabinet Minister. It is not yet clear which one of them was shot.
In a related episode, a senior government figure said on the same day (Mar.20,) We know that a Vice Minister of Defense was also shot in public early this year for drinking during Kims mourning period.

Good soju will do that. The Honorable General probably was facinf “Lost Weekend” and said: “What the Hell I’ll take take a chance”. Looks like there’s no AA under “Dear Newest Leader”. Shootings will continue until discipline in the heirarchy improves!
Hi - haven’t seen you in a while.
Hope you’re doing well.
Remember, Jimmy Carter sent condolences on Kim Jong il’s passing, and SENT A DIRECT MESSAGE TO Kim Jong Eun congratulating him on his new post as Supreme Leader and “WISHING HIM LUCK”. You cannot make this stuff up. Carter should be ashamed.
Sure hope the next dictator has more decisions of this kind when he takes over later this year, or better yet, month. One key to ruling by fear is a disparity between fear of disobedience and the fear of obedience.
Yeah, some of them can be real stubborn in their opposition to pedophilia. /s
On the udder hand, if you play the game well, life can be sweet in NK. How about those 1958 Caddies for the loyal staff!
Who gets his big general hat?
“...shot...for drinking..”.
Over here, he’d hit Betty Ford, the talk shows, write a book, and have his own reality show.

Kim Jong-un ‘Purged Top Brass of Dissenters’
North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has purged high-ranking military officers to consolidate his grip on power after the death of his father Kim Jong-il, it emerged on Tuesday.
A source familiar with North Korea said Kim Jong-un ordered officials in January to remove anyone caught misbehaving during the mourning period for Kim Jong-il. “We have information that an assistant chief of the General Staff Department was arrested and shot by firing squad on charges of sexual harassment during the mourning period,” the source added.
The General Staff Department takes orders directly from Kim Jong-un in wartime and commands the entire North Korean military. There are six or seven assistant chiefs under Gen. Ri Yong-ho, the chief of General Staff. It remains unclear which assistant chief was purged.
A high-ranking government official here said, “To my knowledge, an assistant chief of the Ministry of the Peoples Armed Forces was also put in front of a firing squad early this year for being drunk during the mourning period.”
Kim Sung-min of Free North Korea Radio, a former captain in the North Korean army, recalled that Kim Jong-il also carried out a bloody purge after the death of his father Kim Il-sung in the name of restoring public order. “There is a strong chance that Kim Jong-un is doing exactly what his father did,” he said.
....tuff crowd....
Short straw.
NK is one giant insane asylum where both the inmates, guards, and managerial staff are all completely nuts. There will be something horrifying that eventually comes out on the world stage from this isolated cauldron of lunatics.
I think they should make the ‘mourning period’ permanent.
BTW, what ever happened to OBL’s ‘mourning period’?
So Chia Chub went Lucy Liu Kill Bill vol 1 style on some dude LOL!
