United Nations “1969 Kidnapped KAL Hwang Won, North Korea Detained”
North Korea’s claim that it refused to repatriate because it wanted to was confirmed as ‘false’
United Nations Working Group “Korean Government, try to solve the problems of the kidnapped”
According to the Working Group on Forced (Self) Detention under the UN Human Rights Council on 4, the Working Group said in a decision on 1, “Hwang’s physical freedom from the physical deprivation of liberty of North Korean agents for air hijacking. “There is no legal basis or justification,” he said. “North Korea continued to detain Mr. Hwang and violated Article 9 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and Article 9, paragraph 1, of the Code of Freedom”.
Previously, Hwang’s son, Hwang In-cheol, the representative of the KAL flag family association of victims of kidnapping, filed a complaint with the working group in May last year, asking him to judge the kidnapping of his father as a “ voluntary detention ”. In response, North Korea insisted that “no one was arrested for free will,” but the Working Group did not recognize this.
Korea North Korea kidnapped and said “I want to stay”.
The “KAL plane hijacking” case was hijacked by North Korean fixed agent Cho Chang-hee, disguised as a passenger, on a Korean Air passenger plane that left Gangneung on December 11, 1969 and was traveling to Seoul . After 10 minutes of taking off, Cho Chang-hee got up and invaded the cabin when the plane reached Daegwallyeong. He threatened Captain Yoo Byeong-ha with a pistol and turned him north. The hijacked plane landed at the North Korean airfield at 1:18 p.m. North Korea’s Pyongyang radio station stated that two pilots, including Captain Yoo Byung-ha, were forced to appear in the air and voluntarily entered the country. At the time, there were 52 passengers, including Cho Chang-hee, 47 passengers, and 4 crew members.
North Korea later returned 39 of its 50 passengers and crew members through Panmunjom on February 14, 1970, as criticism of the international community increased. North Korea did not send 11 people, including Mr. Hwang, saying, “They are not trying to return to South Korea.” The eleven were PD, the Hwang reporter, pilot, flight attendant and doctor. It was left alone by professional workers. At that time, Hwang had a son who had just crossed the stone (Hwang’s representative) and a daughter who had just passed a hundred days. North Korea did not respond to the question of whether or not these families were killed.
“It has been 20 years since I tried to return 11 people, including my father,” Hwang said in the opinion of the task force. “I am comforted by the UN recognition that I am not wrong or that I have not done useless things.” Said. Hwang, who was a blood pit at the time of the kidnapping, turned fifty this year. He dedicated 20 years to the repatriation movement looking for books on international law, entering and leaving the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Unification, while earning a living through publication and daily work.
The task force said: “According to the testimony of the returnees, Mr. Hwang sang the song ‘Gogga” which misses his hometown and was brought to North Korean soldiers and detained. It also applies to the detention for the exercise of the freedom of expression “. He continued: “We urge North Korea to ensure full, complete and independent investigations and to take appropriate action against those responsible.”
