Rodong Sinmun Accuses S. Korean Regime of Illegally Detaining DPRK Crewmen
Pyongyang, July 17 (KCNA) -- Rodong Sinmun Friday in a commentary accuses the south Korean puppet regime of illegally detaining three of the five crewmen of the DPRK, talking about "their will to defect."

This is an unpardonable crime against humanity as it seriously infringes upon the sovereignty of the DPRK and rights of its citizens and tramples down even humanitarianism, the commentary notes, and goes on:

Far from mitigating the pain of the fellow countrymen resulting from the national division caused by foreign forces, the puppet regime forced those citizens to eternally part from their harmonious families. This is a barbarous act against human ethics.

The regime talks about "will to defect" and "international practice" in a bid to cover up its crimes against humanity but it only brings into bolder relief its true colors as a group of heinous tricksters and confrontation maniacs.

Its forcible detention of the citizens of the DPRK is part of the conspiratorial racket being kicked up ever more desperately by the puppet regime against the DPRK.

Lurking behind it is a sinister design of the puppet regime to malignantly hurt the dignity and social system of the DPRK by taking issue with its "human rights performance."

Statute of limitations is not applicable to such crime against humanity.

The DPRK will never pardon the puppet regime's crimes against the nation and humanity but force it to pay dearly for them.
