North Korea demanded Sunday that South Korea release an activist whose arrest the North says demonstrates Seoul's confrontational, anti-unification policy.
The Christian activist. the Rev. Han Sang-ryol, was arrested Friday upon his return home from a more than two-month visit to North Korea, where he accused South Korean President Lee Myung-bak's government of raising tension with the North by discarding past rapprochement accords. (AP)
