The
DPRK permanent mission to the UN Office at Geneva and other international
organizations in Switzerland on May 30 issued a press release with regard to
the recent revelation of the truth about the enticed group abduction of DPRK
women citizens by the south Korean authorities.
Noting
that the “case of group defection of north Korean restaurant workers” in April
2016 was proven through interviews of the victims and the criminal involved in
the case to be conspiratorial farce cooked up by the Park Geun Hye regime of
south Korea, the press release said:
Consistent
is our stand to continue our effort and take appropriate measures until the
repatriation of our citizens abducted in group as well as another DPRK woman
citizen Kim Ryon Hui who had been tricked to south Korea and now appeals for
years to return back to her home in the north is realized.
The
south Korean authorities should admit the unheard-of atrocity of the former
Park Geun Hye regime, severely punish those involved in the case, send our
women citizens back without delay and thus show the will to improve the
inter-Korean relations.
What
is disappointing concerning this case is the inaction with silence by UN human
rights agencies including the OHCHR.
The
OHCHR should abandon its prejudiced and partial attitude of lending ears only
to unconfirmed and absurd human rights accusations spread by hostile forces
against the DPRK and discharge its due mandate and responsibility by taking
appropriate action aimed at an early return of the DPRK victims of abduction to
their beloved families as unanimously desired by the international community.
