South Korea, Kingdom of Crimes

South Korea, Kingdom of Crimes

South Korea, a colony of the US imperialists who is the ringleader of aggression and war, is a living hell and den of crimes where mammonism and the law of jungle hold sway and people cannot live in.

Ever-increasing crimes by the US aggression troops in south Korea

In recent years, crimes by the US aggression troops in south Korea are rapidly increasing.

Last year alone, the US occupation troops committed without letup such crimes as sexually abusing south Korean women in their barracks, metros and lifts, threatening citizens with gun-fire, assaulting them in group and menacing them with deadly weapons, catapulting civilian cars to damage, smuggling drugs via military mails, groundlessly walking away innocent citizens to their bases without agreement with the puppet police, etc.

Such felonious crimes as violence, larceny, drug use, sex abuse, robbery, arson and killing amount to 44% of all crimes committed by them.

South Korean civic organizations including the movement headquarters to eradicate the GIs’ crimes assert that the disclosed criminal cases by the GIs since the US occupation of south Korea in 1945 to the present date would number more than 100,000.

Since Lee Myung-bak and Park Geun-hye, diehard pro-US conservatives, took power, crimes by the arrogant US troops began to dramatically increase.

As regards the daily-increasing US crimes, various circles in south Korea stress the need for the reexamination of the presence of the US troops in south Korea for a fundamental solution to their crimes, noting that enormous is the damage the people suffer by those troops.

Immoral south Korea

Maltreatment cases of children beyond imagination occur one after another these days in south Korea.

A man surnamed Jeong, 22, living in Kumi City, North Gyeongsang Province, got frenzied in games while leaving his son, 28 months, unguarded in a vacant house, so he died of hunger.

Worse still, he left the corpse wrapped with a blanket in the balcony after smelling the stink from it, then stealthily discarded it within a plastic bag in a neighboring village for fear of others’ noticing of it. What an egregious crime it is.

Father Kang, 39, living in Cheong-an City, South Chungcheong Province, brought back his daughter, 15, who left home for family discord, cruelly beat her to death with 1 meter-long singlestick and fists but he made a false testimony as if she suicided, denying his crime.

At a high school in Jinju City, South Gyeongsang Province, students perpetrated a shuddering crime of beating two juniors to death for disobedience within 10 days, triggering a big shock in the public.

It is quite natural that in south Korea ruled by murderers who don’t have an iota of qualms after sinking hundreds of young students to death, immoralities and killings are persisting.
