(FAITHWIRE) – It’s no secret the North Korean régime has no tolerance for religion, but a recent report by the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) details how the Workers Party of Korea led by Kim Jong Un targets and tortures Christians and other people of faith while going to great lengths to conceal its crimes.
The report spells out the acts of terror committed by the regime “designed to remove all traces of Christianity” and reveals “the campaign to exterminate all Christian adherents and institutions…has been brutally effective.”
North Korea’s secret police, the Ministry of State Security, are incentivized with promotions when they apprehend Christians and other believers.
