Human Rights Abuse in North Korea is well documented, but few have paid attention to the religious focus that this sometimes takes. Michael Kirby, Chair of the recent UN report on Human Rights Abuse in North Korea, here ponders why the anti-Christian atrocities in the DPRK have gained little attention from the press and media.
