The statement charged that in the ongoing investigation into members of the Solidarity for Progress the security authorities are seeking to obtain data on the formation and activities of the said committee in a bid to link them with the DPRK.

Not content with the severance of dialogue with the DPRK which led to military tension, the "government" is scheming to stifle even non-governmental exchange, which played a significant role in the development of the inter-Korean relations, under the pretext of public security, it pointed out.

The statement warned that all the people would never pardon the authorities seeking to tide over the ruling crisis with the reign of terror.
