Repression of Patriotic Activist Flailed in S. Korea
Pyongyang, January 16 (KCNA) -- The Solidarity for Implementing the South-North Joint Declaration in south Korea released a statement on Jan. 13, denouncing the puppet authorities for suppression of a young pro-reunification patriotic man.

The statement referred to the fact that on the day the judicial authorities sentenced Kim Song Il, a member of the solidarity, to two years in prison after trying him.

To brand Kim's admission to the solidarity and activities as "enemy-benefiting deed" and subject him to pressure by dint of the "National Security Law" is an anti-reunification behavior of totally denying the inter-Korean declarations and a suppression of the solidarity, it charged.

The statement expressed the determination to resolutely fight against the treachery of the present "government" which blocks the activity of the reunification movement organization, tossing into prison the patriotic youth who has devoted himself to the reunification of the divided country.

It demanded that the authorities unleash all the detained reunification activists including Kim.
