Pyongyang, July 15 (KCNA) -- Amnesty International on July 12 urged the south Korean authorities to let a group of women citizens of the DPRK allured and abducted to south Korea by gangsters of the puppet Intelligence Service meet their families. UPI said that day it was skeptical about respect for the women of north Korea taken away to south Korea as they are not allowed to get in touch with lawyers. It said that in May last lawyers affiliated to the Association of Lawyers for Democratic Society, a progressive lawyers organization of south Korea, requested a meeting with them, but it was turned down by the authorities. The south Korean authorities have not open to public the situation of north Korean women, it noted. In this regard, Amnesty International urged the south Korean authorities to take a measure to let them meet their families from north Korea as required by the law on human rights, it added. |
