The government of South Korea has stated, based on their intelligence inputs, that North Korea has executed the education minister of the country. The news of the killing of Kim Yong-jin (63), vice premier for education, by a firing squad was made public in Seoul.
Earlier it was published in newspapers that two high officials of North Korean government have been killed by the firing squad and as per these reports, these incidents took place in the starting of the month.
Kim Yong-jin, the education minister was once found sleeping in the meeting of the Kim Jong-un for which he was punished and after that investigation was also carried out against him regarding the cases of corruption.
This month only, the deputy ambassador of North Korea, Thae Yong-ho took asylum in South Korean embassy in London.
The government of North Korea has alleged the involvement of Thae Yong-ho in cases of fraud, physical assault on children and passing on secret information to the enemies of the country.
If we compare this case with Indian politicians who have been found sleeping in the parliament, they must be thankful to God that they are born in India and not in North Korea, if you know what I mean 😉
