UN experts: fate of North Koreans returned from China unknown
Original: Fate unknown of many returned to DPR Korea from China: UN independent experts
UN independent experts say the fate of many North Koreans who were returned from China to the DPR Korea is unknown. The experts are raising concern over the treatment of those deported, warning they may face detention, interrogation or worse upon repatriation. The issue touches on long-standing disputes over whether North Korean escapees in China should be treated as refugees deserving protection rather than as illegal migrants to be sent back.
Why now: China's reported repatriation of North Korean escapees has drawn renewed international scrutiny and criticism of the two governments involved.
