Kim Jong-un could be investigated for crimes against humanity

As reported by the independent, Kim Jong-un must be investigated for crimes against humanity, a United Nations official has said.

Marzuki Darusman, the special rapporteur on human rights in North Korea, revealed “unspeakable atrocities” from murder and abductions to enslavement, torture, imprisonment, rape, persecution and starvation on an unparalleled scale in the secretive state.

He concluded that the Supreme Leader and highest levels of his government were responsible for crimes against humanity and should be held accountable.

His report, dated 19 January but published this week, also said three experts should be appointed to find the best legal path to hold North Korea to account and find “creative and practical” ways to establish the truth and ensure justice for victims.
