N. Korea Executes People Caught with Mobile Phones

2007 October 22

According to the AP, a South Korean government think tank has claimed that North Korea has increased its public executions of people caught owning a mobile phone.

“The Korea Institute for National Unification said in a white paper that executions of those who “circulate South Korean leaflets and sell videos and use cell phones are on the rise” without citing numbers.

… While no mobile network is available to the general public, many phones are smuggled across the border with China, where the Chinese phone networks are reported to have an unusually strong signal strength which reaches deep inside the North Korean border zone.
