A UN commission’s report on human rights violations in North Korea is expected to condemn Pyongyang when it comes online Monday afternoon in Geneva.
The UN Commission of Inquiry on Human Rights in North Korea was established a year ago in order to investigate claims of human rights abuses. In an earlier interview its chair, Michael Kirby, would not speculate as to what the commission’s findings or recommendations would be, but leaked reports on the commission’s findings indicate that it will condemn the North for wide-ranging attacks on human rights and recommend that it be referred to the International Criminal Court.
