Protest Letter to Minister of Unification and President of Red Cross of South Korea
Pyongyang, March 10 (KCNA) -- The family members of 31 inhabitants detained by the south Korean authorities sent a letter of protest Wednesday to the minister of "Unification" and the president of Red Cross of south Korea.
The letter said nobody believes the south Korean authorities' assertion that four of them expressed the "will to defect," and went on:
They went adrift after going out to the sea with no other aim but to gather shellfish.
It is nonsensical for them to come back via Panmunjom far away from their hometown after discarding their serviceable ship though they may come back soon by ship.
We lodge a strong protest with the south Korean authorities against this unfair attitude and urge them to enable the 31 members of our families to come back as early as possible along the sea route taken by their ship.
