North Korea 'executes' man by firing squad for violating COVID-19 quarantine rules

In North Korea, there’s a lingering report that the country has finally executed a citizen in public for violating ’emergency quarantine measure’.

Radio Free Asia (RFA), a citizen in North Korea was executed by firing squad shooting after the man was accused of snuggling with his Chinese business partners.

According to the report, public execution was ordered in an effort to scare other citizens into strict compliance with the emergency quarantine measures in the country.

The country which shares a border with China has repeatedly claimed it is Covid_Free but the government has implemented a number of severe lockdown restrictions to stop the spread of the virus, including a ban on travel between provinces.

“Since the end of November, the Central Committee [of the Korean Workers’ Party] have ratcheted up the existing emergency quarantine measures to ‘ultra-high-level’ emergency quarantine measures,” a resident of North Pyongan province, on the border with China in the country’s northwest, told RFA’s Korean Service this week.

“The public execution happened because the victim was charged with violating quarantine right before the ultra-high-level emergency measures took effect around 20 November. A man in his 50s who tried to smuggle with Chinese business partners was shot as an example on 28 November,” the source added.

The provider of the information said they did not attend the public execution but discussed it with a business, who said the shooting was moved away from the victim’s home country, near the border, to keep the news from spreading to China.

A North Pyongan official told RFA that citizens are growing increasingly scared of the control measures imposed by the government.

The Authorities in the North are ordering the soldiers to shoot anyone approaching the border unconditionally, regardless of who the person is or their reasons does being in the area. The second source said that it is an absolute treat to the border area residents. As it stands the border is guarded all-round against residents intruding.
