Sexual Abuses and Scandals Rampant within S. Korean Army
Pyongyang, February 2 (KCNA) -- Sexual abuses and scandals are breaking out within the south Korean army in an unbroken chain.

Sexual abuses are being ceaselessly committed by those in the upper echelon of the military, in particular.

South Korean CBS recently reported that an army colonel in Kangwon Province of south Korea was arrested for his habitual sexual abuses.

He has reportedly perpetrated sexual abuses against a service woman under his command several times since December last year.

Recalling a major of the same unit was also arrested for his sexual abuses, the broadcasting service said the army is floundering in the mire of sexual abuses and scams.

In October last year brass hats of the army were arrested one after another for committing sexual abuses, a strong shock to the south Korean society.

Women officers, distressed by such sexual abuses, are committing suicide.

90 percent of the women within the south Korean army has become targets of sexual maniacs of the military.

Various kinds of scandals perpetrated by those in the upper echelon of the military through munitions enterprises are baffling human imagination.

On Jan. 28 a former navy brass threw himself into the River Han to death. He had been under investigation on suspicion of having received hundreds of millions of won from a munitions business.

On Jan. 30 a lieutenant colonel of the air force was put in custody for a fraud in arms dealings.
