2009-04-02 | |
It is now day two since North Korea detained a South Korean working at the joint Kaesong Industrial Complex. The Hyundai Asan employee in his 40s has been under interrogation since Monday after being accused of criticizing the communist state's political system and trying to talk a North Korean female worker into defecting. The Unification Ministry says it is still awaiting a response from Pyongyang regarding the detainee's rights to an attorney, which the two Koreas have agreed. Under the agreement, North Korea can interrogate and choose to either warn, fine, or send back a South Korean who violates its rules at the industrial park.
