North Korea has returned to the streets killing those it considers a threat to the country's leadership. Political enemies of Kim Jong Un executed, perhaps even to create fear among the elite who opposes the government, will end soon as they.
The conservative daily, JoongAng Ilbo, reported that Hëang Min, former Minister of Agriculture and Ri Yong-jin, a senior official in the Ministry of Education, were executed by anti-aircraft in a military academy in Pyongyang in early August.
Hwang reportedly died after proposing some policies that are seen as a direct threat to Kim's leadership.
While the reason that thought is executed is that Ri had fallen asleep during a meeting headed by Kim Yong un.
The report quoted anonymous sources who have access to classified information to the regime. But state media made no reaction after the news.
The highest official in the country executed Jang Song Thaek, Kim's uncle, who was revealed as a traitor to the nation and was assassinated in December 2013.
Newspaper JoongAng Ilbo speculates that executions could mark a new round of purges, as a show of force by Kim Yong Un to strengthen even more power in his hands, after discord involving the political elite of North Korea during the last.
