UN 'wants North Korean regime crimes punished'
A year-long UN inquiry into rights abuses in North Korea is due to be published, and is expected to urge punishment for systematic violations by the state. A panel of experts mandated by the UN's Human Rights Council said North Koreans had suffered "unspeakable atrocities". The panel heard evidence of torture, enslavement, sexual violence, severe political repression and other crimes. Testimony to the panel has included an account of a woman forced to drown her own baby, children imprisoned from birth and starved, and families tortured for watching a foreign soap opera. |
