Social Scientists Society of Korea Denounces Unjust Move of Japanese Authorities

Pyongyang, February 24 (KCNA) -- A spokesperson for the Social Scientists Society of Korea Friday issued a statement as regards the fact that the Japanese customs authorities rummaged the luggage of the members of the delegation of the Japanese organization for the study of the Juche idea who returned home after visiting the DPRK and confiscated books and multimedia presentations they brought with them at the Kansai airport and the Haneda airport on Feb. 18.

Those confiscated were books, multimedia presentations and souvenirs they legally secured during their visit to the DPRK. So there is no reason whatsoever for them to be the objects of confiscation, the statement noted, adding:

So far a lot of personages of different countries visited Pyongyang and recorded the genuine appearances of the DPRK by themselves and brought with them lots of publications and souvenirs to their countries. But no country considered it as problematic.

Only Japanese authorities commit the aforesaid violence.

This confiscation is an open oppression and anachronistic act against the progressive personages who want to study and spread the progressive idea which is displaying greater attraction day by day.

It will not flee from deserved denunciation as it is a manifestation of the unchanged hostile policy towards the DPRK.

No power politics can block the desire of mankind for independence to sympathize with and follow the just ideology and idea.

The Japanese authorities should immediately stop the unjust move, mindful of the lesson drawn from the unanimous denunciation from progressive organizations and people across the world they deserved after they investigated the centers of the activities of the Japanese organizations for the study of the Juche idea including the secretariat of the International Institute of the Juche Idea and confiscated things in October 2001. -0
