Release of Detained Patriotic Student Urged
Pyongyang, May 26 (KCNA) -- The Youth and Students Solidarity for Implementing the June 15 Joint Declaration in south Korea issued a statement on May 21 demanding the police immediately release the detained patriotic student.

The statement accused the "security investigation corps" of the Mokpho Police Station of coming even to Seoul and walking off to it on May 20 Kim Son Nam, student of Chosun University, who has devotedly struggled for independence, democracy and reunification.

The security organs are getting more frantic in their repressive actions, backed by the Lee Myung Bak man-killing dictatorial regime, but this is nothing but its last-ditch effort to get rid of its crisis in order to stay in power, the statement noted.

With no suppression can the regime calm down the people's anger, it held, urging Lee to step down of his own accord, clearly knowing where he stands.

The statement demanded the security authorities halt such suppression little short of man-killing and release the detained Kim Son Nam at once.
