Probe into Truth behind Ryongsan Tragedy Called for
Pyongyang, January 25 (KCNA) -- A memorial service for evacuees killed in Ryongsan was held in Seoul on Jan. 20, two years since the tragedy. It was attended by members of civic and religious organizations including the Federation of Evacuees of south Korea and the bereaved families.

Two years have passed since the evacuees were killed due to the police brutal suppression but truth about it has not yet been probed and those responsible not punished, they said.

Such murder as the Ryongsan tragedy is rampant in south Korea, they deplored. They called for earlier repeal of an evil law on development backed by the authorities.

They appealed to the people from all walks of life to pool efforts to probe the truth behind the tragedy and build a world in which the people have become masters.
