Pyongyang, July 28 (KCNA) -- The All-Islanders Measure Committee for Checking the Construction of Jeju Military Base in south Korea held a press conference outside the construction site of the Jeju naval base on July 25 denouncing the puppet authorities for their fascist suppression of the protestors against the construction of the base.
At the press conference speakers exposed that the director of the Police Agency appeared at the Sogwipho Police Station on Jeju Island and ordered the use of violence, branding the actions against the construction of the naval base as illegal.
According to his order the police occupied the Kangjong Village, creating a terror-ridden atmosphere, they charged.
This shows the authorities have no willingness to stop the construction of the base, they said.
They would not move even a step back in the actions against the construction of the Jeju naval base, they noted.
They demanded the authorities stop at once the crackdown on the actions against the construction of the base. -0-
