S. Korean activist: N. Korea kidnaps defector in China
None
The head of an anti-North Korean radio station in Seoul says his missing correspondent in the Chinese border city of Dandong has been taken by North Korean security officials. Kim Seong-min said Saturday night that the 50-year-old defector was taken near the Yalu river on Feb. 19 while waiting to meet his wife and son from North Korea.
Kim, who is also a defector, said he recently received the information from a contact inside North Korea. Kim said he believes the defector is one of four South Koreans who North Korea's state media has said illegally entered the North. The North's Korean Central News Agency reported on Feb. 26 that the four were under investigation, but did not identify the South Koreans or say when they allegedly entered North Korea. (AP)
