FOUNDATION STATEMENT OF THE INTERNATIONAL COMMITTEE FOR THE RELEASE OF MR RO SU HUI

FOUNDATION STATEMENT OF THE INTERNATIONAL COMMITTEE FOR THE RELEASE OF MR RO SU HUI
We are founding this international committee for the release of Mr Ro Su Hui because we are deeply shocked by unjust and repressive treatment meted out to him by south Korean authorities . Mr Ro Su Hui vice-chairman of the south side headquarters of the Pan-National Alliance for Korea's Reunification was arrested, on the 5th of July, as he stepped into south Korea after visiting the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.
                              Mr Ro was arrested and detained by the south Korean fascist puppets under the so-called "National Security Law" of south Korea. The NSL punishes south Korean people for visiting north Korea or sympathising with it in anyway. The NSL is  fascist and a throwback to a by-gone era. The NSL is very much reminiscent of Nazi Germany , 1950s McCarthyite America and Apartheid south Korea. The NSL is also  a block to inter-Korean relations, reconciliation and  and reunification.
                     Mr Ro has committed no crime whatsoever. He simply visited one part of his own country which has been artificially divided by outside forces (chiefly US imperialism).  We ask why is the south Korean regime so afraid of its people visiting the Democratic People's Republic of Korea ?.

Our demands are simple and straightforward - the unconditional release of Mr Ro Su Hui and the dropping of any charges against him.

Our committee will do what it can to raise the international profile of this horrendous  case and exposes the real human rights abuses on the Korean peninsula.
