S. Korean Paper Denounces Authorities for Crackdown upon Korean-American
Pyongyang, January 11 (KCNA) -- The south Korean paper Hangyore in an editorial on Jan. 9 branded the authorities' crackdown upon Sin Un Mi, a Korean in the U.S., as a "witch hunting".

The editorial went on:

The prosecution asked the Ministry of Justice to evict Sin and the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism deleted her north travelogue from the list of excellent literature.

The crackdown upon Sin showed that the regime is losing its reason.

The ultra-right forces indicted her on horrible allegations, but nothing was proven to support the charge which was instead proven to be false.

Noting that it is a clear example of human rights abuse to evict her, the editorial said the authorities' act of trampling down human rights is the reality in south Korean society.
