North Korean defector Kim Ryon-Hui (C) speaks to reporters during a press conference by Tomas Ojea Quintana, the UN's Special Rapporteur on human rights in North Korea, in Seoul on December 14 nike air huarache just do it australia , 2017. A North Korean defector interrupted a United Nations human rights press conference in Seoul on December 14, to plead tearfully to be allowed to go back to her relatives in Pyongyang.
A North Korean defector interrupted a United Nations human rights press conference in Seoul on Thursday to plead tearfully to be allowed to go back to her relatives in Pyongyang.
More than 30,000 North Koreans have fled poverty and repression in their isolated homeland to move to the South.
But they often struggle to make a living in the capitalist South and sometimes fail to adjust to their new lives.
Dressmaker Kim Ryon-Hui arrived seven years ago but has since has made several desperate attempts to return to her family -- including forging a passport, for which she was imprisoned, and falsely confessing to espionage in the hope she would be expelled.
“I’m a citizen of Pyongyang of the Democratic Republic of Korea nike air max plus just do it australia ,” Kim told dozens of reporters at a briefing in Seoul by Tomas Ojea Quintana, the UN’s Special Rapporteur on human rights in the North.
“I have been forcefully detained in the South for seven years,” she added.
Kim accused Seoul of violating her human rights, saying it had prevented her from going back to her aging parents and daughter.
“A mother is someone who can’t be apart from her daughter for even a moment, but seven years just hurts too much nike air max 95 just do it australia ,” she said, her voice trembling, adding she had attempted suicide.
Most North Korean defectors are issued a South Korean passport six months after arrival, but Kim still has not received one and said the South’s intelligence services had told her she “might escape to the North”.
South Koreans need government permission -- which is only granted in exceptional circumstances -- to go to the North, with which the country is technically still at war.
Pyongyang repeatedly cites Kim’s case and has said it will not allow any more reunions of relatives divided by the Korean War until she -- and 12 North Korean waitresses who it says were kidnapped from a restaurant in China -- are returned.
The divided families are one of the most emotive outcomes of the conflict nike air max 1 just do it australia , which saw the peninsula partitioned in 1953, with around 60,000 increasingly elderly South Koreans still hoping to meet their relatives again.
Quintana said the case was an example of the “absurd cost of division”.
The North is accused by the UN and many other countries of widespread human rights violations and Quintana said social and economic structures that fulfil ordinary people’s rights and needs had largely “disappeared”.
“What remains intact is the comprehensive system of control and surveillance over the population,” he said.
There was also a “widening gap in living standards between Pyongyang residents and the majority of the population”.
“It is alarming that this situation occurs in a country that is devoting a vast proportion of its resources to its defence budget and strengthening its border controls in unprecedented ways,” he added.
“The order of priorities in the DPRK requires a major shift that recognises the urgency to fulfil the basic needs of the population.

GENEVA nike air force 1 just do it australia , July 21 (Xinhua) -- The UN refugee agency, UNHCR, on Friday said it welcomes this week's launching of a Pakistan government program to register undocumented Afghans living in the country, estimated between 600,000 to one million.
"This significant step will help regularize the stay for many Afghans at a time when return to their home country may not be possible nike air presto just do it australia ," said UNHCR spokesperson Duniya Aslam Khan.
Afghans registered under this new scheme will receive Afghan Citizen cards, providing them legal protection from arbitrary arrests, detention or deportation under Pakistan's Foreigner's Act said the UNHCR.
"The citizen cards will allow Afghans to stay in Pakistan for the time being, until they can be issued documents, such as passports cheap nike just do it australia , by the Government of Afghanistan," said Khan.
The initiative will bring much needed relief for many Afghan families where some were registered refugees, while others had no legal status.
