The statement accused the police authorities of forcing the chairperson of the Youth Society for Reunification to appear at the "Security Investigation Group" recently after keeping him on watch for several days.

Referring to the evermore undisguised suppression by the security forces, the statement deplored: One can no longer overlook the reality in which people are subject to dictatorial crackdown under the present regime and, worse still, even elementary human rights are abused due to illegal investigation.

The security machine should be disbanded as it is engrossed in illegal inspections, trampling down upon the rights of the people and the Lee Myung Bak regime hell-bent on dictatorial crackdown should step down, urged the statement.
