Stop the repatriation of North Korean defectors

Created by D.H. on February 18, 2012

We call on the Administration to call on China to stop repatriating North Korean defectors. From February 8th to the 13th, 28 North Korean defectors were arrested by the Public Security Bureau agents in three cities near the Chinese border. After their arrest, Chinese police interrogate the defectors and return them to North Korea. After repatriation, the defectors will be sent to political prisoner camps and their chances of public execution are imminent. In the prison camp, their human rights of will be cruelly abused as they are subject to forced labor, involuntary abortion, physical violence, sexual assault, public execution, torture, medical experiment and lack of hygienic care.
