There broke out recently many cases in which the "National Security Law" was invoked against progressive organizations, the radio said.

Different circles are asserting that this is aimed to create a repressive atmosphere to prevent the ruling crisis in the last period of their office and divide the progressive forces, it noted.

Most of the recent cases are ruled as those lacking in evidence, it said. This proves that the ruling forces are driven into such tight corner.

The radio accused the authorities of conducting an unreasonable investigation into progressive organizations by linking them with the DPRK and working hard to deter the progressive forces from coming to power in the run-up to the next year's elections.
