Pyongyang, December 7 (KCNA) -- As already reported, a relevant
institution of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) detained
and investigated U.S. citizen Merrill Edward Newman who entered the
DPRK under the guise of a tourist to confirm the whereabouts of the
spies and terrorists who had been trained and dispatched by him, an
intelligence officer, during the last Korean War.
According to the investigation, Newman entered the DPRK with a wrong
understanding of it and perpetrated a hostile act against it.
Taking into consideration his admittance of the act committed by him
on the basis of his wrong understanding, apology made by him for it,
his sincere repentance of it and his advanced age and health condition,
the above-said institution deported him from the country from a
humanitarian viewpoint. -0-
