Kim Jong-un executes uncle's relatives: report


SEOUL: -- North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has reportedly put to death a number of surviving relatives of his executed uncle Jang Song-thaek, including children.


Quoting "multiple sources", a report from South Korean news agency Yonhap says the relatives include North Korea's ambassadors to Cuba and Malaysia, who were both related to Mr Kim's uncle by marriage.


Mr Jang, once a powerful mentor to Mr Kim, was dragged out of a party meeting, tried and executed last month on charges of attempting to overthrow the communist regime.


The report says all direct relatives of Mr Jang have been executed.


"Extensive executions have been carried out for relatives of Jang Song-thaek," one source told the agency.


"All relatives of Jang have been put to death, including even children."

It's difficult to verify any of this. Wild rumors abound about everything North Korean. One recent story is that he had his uncle killed by putting him naked in a cage with starved dogs. That appears now to have been a story drummed up by Chinese media to show how mean KJu is and therefore to discredit the China government for having relations with him. Take these stories with a grain of salt...

Next thing you know he'll have everyone's teeth pulled.

They don't have any food, so they don't really need teeth.

The next emotive post comparing this situation to Thai politics will earn the poster a suspension.

IIRC, that original report was about the starved uncle fed to naked dogs.

Why do reports say N. Korea is a "communist regime" its not. Its a "Dictatorship" and the worst one the world has ever seen in modern times.

Yes, it is most certainly a rotten, foul dictatorship, but "worst"...Pol Pot regime....Idi Amin regime...Saddam Hussein...Gaddafy....Asaad....Duvalier...Sukarno/Suharto...Marcos

Lots of contenders.

Meanwhile, Little Chubby is saying he'll allow another family reunion N/S (on his turf), IF the US and South Korea cancel their annual war games. Last time he withdrew the offer after families had made plans.

The good news...there are a lot of people living in NK who are silently, patiently working toward ending this foul crime family's 70 year reign of terror.
