| 2012-03-07 |
| The U.S. Congress held a hearing on China's forced repatriation of North Korean defectors on Monday. Lawmakers, activist groups and defectors urged Beijing to stop the practice and respect the refugees' human rights. One mother and daughter who managed to flee the North after being forced back to their homeland four times testified before the Congressional-Executive Commission on China and spoke of the torture and dangers they faced when they were sent home. |
