The statement said that the south Korean authorities' heinous unethical terrorism is arousing bitter hatred and resentment of the officials of the regional association and Koreans in China.

The south Korean authorities' talks about "group defection from the north" and "free will" are no more than sheer sophism aimed to tarnish the image of the DPRK registering the world-startling successes one after another despite the U.S. and its followers' sanctions and cover up their shuddering unethical terrorism.

They are now leaving no means untried to force the abductees to "defect" through all sorts of appeasement, threat and blackmail, keeping them in solitary cells under the absurd pretext of "protecting their safety" for fear that their thrice-cursed group allurement and abduction might be disclosed to public.

The statement strongly urged the south Korean authorities to make an apology for their group allurement and abduction before the compatriots and the world, though belatedly, and send the women back to the DPRK without delay and severely punish the Intelligence Service and backstage manipulators involved in the crime.
