SHANGHAI AMERICAN SCHOOL TURNS OVER NK REFUGEES
On Monday, September 27, eight North Korean women and children went inside the Elementary school of the Shanghai American School and were subsequently handed over to the Chinese Police. According to one eyewitness account, "We just had a horrible incident at school. It happened yesterday afternoon... They were traumatized and in shock. No staff or students were hurt but they had to stand by helplessly and watch the police physically remove these women and their children from the school. When our Korean translator explained to the women that they were not on embassy grounds the look of terror that crossed their faces stunned everyone present. That was when everyone realized that as soon as they were returned to North Korea by the Chinese government they would most likely be put to death or worse, wish they were dead. There was lots of yelling and screaming and crying as they were dragged away and put into police vans. You will probably never hear about this in the news but I wanted to share their plight with the outside world. Perhaps your prayers will help them."
