Report: North Korea executes official by flamethrower

As part of a second purge of top North Koreans following the execution of leader Kim Jong Un's uncle, 11 high-ranking officials have been imprisoned or put to death, including a security chief "burned alive" by a flamethrower, a South Korean newspaper reported Tuesday.
 
An additional 100 lower-ranking Workers Party officials were fired, an unidentified source told The Chosun Ilbo, while a third round of purges will target regional supporters of Kim's powerful uncle Jang Song Thaek, who was executed in December as "a traitor" after being convicted of "anti-party, counter-revolutionary factional acts."
 
In a separate report, the newspaper reported that North Korea intends to execute 200 high-ranking officials loyal to Jang and that about 1,000 family members might be interred in concentration camps.
 
Jang's elder sister, her husband, Jon Yong Jin, who was North Korea's ambassador to Cuba, and their son-in-law, who headed a trading company, were among those executed Sunday, according to the South Korean report, which could not be independently verified.

5. I would like to have another source for that story.

Weeks after the story that his uncle had been eaten alive by dogs, it was debunked.

8. maybe

could be exaggerated, but the fact that it's even plausible shows the insanity of that regime.

The insanity of that regime?

1. The national government has the final say-so in everything.
2. The opposition is silenced.
3. Capitalism is not allowed.
4. Ranks at the top of the chart in a Gallup poll of nations that are irreligious.
5. Hates the USA

It sounds to me like North Korea has the regime that DUmmies long for.

I would expect the "official's" family to get the bill for his cremation.  No free lunch in commy land, as the American parasite class will eventually find out if they ever get their way.

Not in North Korea, BD. That is China. In North Korea they take your entire family for 3 generations and put them in concentration camps. Sad but supposedly true. Google it. Might not be true, one never knows when dealing with North Korea, but I think it is.
