Pyongyang: The brutality of North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un is well known. Sometimes he blows up his political rivals with a cannon, sometimes he throws his relatives who make mistakes against hungry wild dogs. His madness and cruelty were even mentioned by US President Donald Trump himself. He told Bob Woodward, author of the Rage book, that Kim had shown the decapitated corpse of his Fua Jang Sang Thayak to North Korean authorities.
The ashes of the corpses are drunk
An inmate who recently escaped from a North Korean prison has revealed that watching a foreign TV show there is also a horrific punishment. Prisoners were forced to drink river water filled with the ashes of their dead fellow prisoners. Inmates at North Korea's Chongqing Construction Cam are also treated worse than animals, the prisoner said.
The
Washington-based Committee for Human Rights (HRNK) in North Korea has interviewed a prisoner who escaped from prison. The prisoner's name and identity have been kept secret for security reasons. He also said that the bodies of the prisoners are kept in a godown before being cremated where rats and other creatures also eat it. The team has also confirmed what the prisoner said with the help of satellite images.
Punishment for watching a foreign channel or practicing Christianity
In this camp, people are imprisoned for watching a South Korean TV channel or for practicing Christianity. Prisons are called inhumane torture by naming concentration camps. Every week someone dies here and is cremated in a cemetery built inside the camp.
The bodies were
cremated on Monday, the former inmate said, adding that corpses are cremated every Monday in the camp. This space looks like a house. We used to put corpses in a round tank made of this, the smell of which made it difficult to stay there. The ashes of the corpses were later brought out of the crematorium and used as compost in agriculture.
The ashes of the corpses were melting in the rain
When it rained, the ashes of the corpses flowed into the river. We were given water from this river for bathing and drinking. The highest number of deaths were due to injury, illness or physical and mental abuse by prison officials.
