The statement accused the detectives of the "Security Investigation Group" in Kwangju of walking off Kim Hyon Ung, student of Jonnam National University who was chief of the Action Headquarters of the south Korean Federation of University Student Councils for 2008, on the university campus on April 16 on the charge of violating the "National Security Law".

The statement declared the arrest of Kim perpetrated by them in the wake of their crackdown upon members of the Teachers Trade Union and the Government Employees' Union, former core members of the Solidarity for Implementing the South-North Joint Declaration, the representative of the Internet Broadcasting Service "Chongchun", the chairman of the Rowon Youth Association, etc. betrays the sinister intention of the authorities to get rid of the political crisis through their fascist rule.

If the authorities try to bind the masses hand and foot more tightly through the fascist rule under the pretext of "security", the people will stage actions to judge the regime in the upcoming "election to the local self-governing bodies," it warned, urging the fascist authorities to bear this in mind and stop at once their unreasonable suppression of the progressive forces.
