Amnesty workers sought by police

By Wassayos Ngamkham

Police are looking for a South Korean and a Thai working for a non-profit organisation for their possible involvement in the Underground Railroad that helps North Koreans escape to South Korea through Thailand.

No charges have yet been filed against Oh Sei-Woo and Supoj Pan-on of the Foundation for Life and Social Development. At this stage, they are wanted for questioning.........

In the USA we call them coyotes and they tend to make a lot of money doing it.

Really ? And I suppose these "coyotes" bring themselves to the attention of the authorities by interpreting for their customers if they have issues with the police or immigration ?

[DrFisher]

No, they stage protests outside the White House and say they should be allowed to come to the USA because if we do not allow them we are bad people. They have lawyers that do the talking for them.

FYI "Coyote" is the term commonly used for traffickers/smugglers who "assist" would-be migrants to reach and cross the US/Mexico border. They have a quite sinister reputation , often dumping their customers on the Mexican side off the border prey to the bandits awaiting the chance to rape and rob (indeed the coyotes themselves often include these activities in their services). To err is human , but to produce total misinformation requires effort.
