SEOUL, South Korea — South Korea said on Friday it had protested to China over the suspected forced repatriation of a large number of North Koreans, who rights groups say face imprisonment and abuse at the hands of North Korean authorities. Any forced repatriation of North Koreans goes against international norms and South Korea views it as regrettable, Koo Byoung-sam, a spokesman for South Korea’s Unification Ministry, told a media briefing.
” The Chinese ministry spokesman, Wang Wenbin, referring to North Koreans who entered illegally for economic reasons, said China had always handled the issue “properly” according to principles of domestic and international law and humanitarianism. South Korea’s government and international rights organizations have said defectors who are deported back to the North face harsh punishment, including detention at labor camps where they are subject to dangerous treatment and conditions.
