NK prison survivor speaks out
GENE VA (AFP) - A North Korean prison camp survivor on Wednesday gave a rare testimony exposing public executions and starvation at the detention centre where she was held for 28 years. Kim Hye Sook was aged 13 when she was sent to join her parents at the Gwalliso No 18 political prisoners camp where detainees were treated "worse than dogs" while carrying out enforced labour and being abused by guards. Kim, who was released in 2001 and now lives in South Korea, sobbed as she told a conference in Geneva how she was forced to watch public shootings.
