【禁闻】朝鲜反人类 联合国欲追究 中共反对

2014年02月20日时政
【新唐人2014年02月20日讯】联合国人权委员会日前发布了朝鲜人权状况调查报告,其中记录了朝鲜大量骇人听闻的侵犯人权案例,调查委员会严厉谴责朝鲜目前存在大规模的危害人类的罪行,并建议将调查报告提交国际法庭审理,但遭到了中共当局的反对。

联合国朝鲜人权调查委员会2月17号公布了一份长达372页的调查报告,其中记录了朝鲜逃亡者、劳改营幸存者、和被绑架者等320多名证人,控诉朝鲜当局对他们残酷迫害的证词。是至今为止有关朝鲜践踏人权最有权威性的报告。

报告指出,朝鲜人民正遭受“难以形容的暴行”,“在朝鲜发生的侵犯人权行为的严重性、程度和性质,在当代没有其他国家可以类比”。报告还说,朝鲜政府通过系统的对人民进行政治、宗教及种族迫害来巩固政权,“许多侵犯人权的案例,都已构成反人类罪。”这些罪行包括人口灭绝、谋杀、奴役、酷刑、囚禁、强奸、强迫堕胎、强迫搬迁、强迫失踪、制造饥荒等等。

据《美国之音》报导,由于朝鲜当局不允许调查委员会入境调查,委员会只能通过采访受害者和证人来蒐集信息。经过1年多的调查,委员会获取了大量第一手证词,以及朝鲜当局号称不存在的集中营卫星图像。人权监察组织“国际特赦”也为这份报告提供了录像资料,其中包括来自朝鲜的逃脱者、和前监狱看守、囚犯、军队军官以及被拐卖朝鲜妇女的自述和证言。

国际特赦组织工作人员女士:“关于那个录像的内容,就是一些访问,就是在朝鲜逃出来的一些监犯他们的一些访问。”

一位政治犯监狱前警卫告诉调查委员会:在〔政治犯劳改营〕里面的囚犯不被当人看待。他们永远不会获释…他们的记录都被永久抹消了。他们注定要奴役至死。我们被训练将犯人视同敌人,所以我们不把他们当人看。

华府中国问题专家原乔治梅森大学客座教授章天亮:“从联合国的报告来看,朝鲜的老百姓其实面临着严重的生存危机,而这个生存危机并不是说是由于不可控制的力量——天灾啊、或者其他别的甚么自然灾害造成的,而是政府对老百姓实施国家恐怖主义的统治,在这种情况下,这种人道的灾难其实国际社会是有义务去采取各种措施加以制止的。”

报告呼吁,希望联合国安理会把朝鲜人权问题提交给国际刑事法院(ICC),并对相关朝鲜官员展开调查。此外,报告当中还包括一封由委员会致朝鲜最高领导人金正恩的信函,信中警告金正恩,依据国际刑法,他可能会为在朝鲜犯下的这些“反人类罪”承担个人责任。

但朝鲜当局断然否认了联合国报告提出的指控。 中共外交部发言人华春莹也在17号表示,中国反对联合国因人权指控,将朝鲜领导人诉诸国际刑事法庭的任何行动。将人权问题提交国际刑事法院,无助于改善一国人权状况。

对此,评论人士指出,相比朝鲜,在中共统治下的大陆人权恶劣状况有过之无不及,如果朝鲜受到制裁,中共肯定也难逃其责,所以中共才会不遗馀力地反对国际法庭对朝鲜进行制裁。

章天亮:“中共的人权迫害其实也非常严重,从这个比例上来讲,从人数上来讲甚至可能会超过朝鲜,因为像朝鲜它人口一共才有2千万,它就都迫害也就迫害2千万人。中共的话,当时迫害法轮功,总共人数的话就有1亿人,所以就从人权迫害的规模上来讲,那中共其实它的问题也是严重的反人类罪行,不会比朝鲜差的。所以如果国际社会可以对朝鲜进行干预的话,那么从法理上来讲的话,对中共也可以进行干预。”

联合国人权理事会3月17号将在瑞士日内瓦对调查报告进行讨论。

CCP Opposed the United Nations' Investigation on North
Korea against Humanity

UN Human Rights Commission has released an investigation
report about North Korean human rights, which recorded a
large number of appalling human rights violations.

The Human Rights Commission strongly fulminated against
existing large-scale against humanity crimes in North Korea,
and recommended to submit the investigation report to
the international court.
But it was opposed by the Chinese Communist Party, CCP.

The UN Human Rights Commission released the 372 paged
investigation report on 17th February, recording the accusation
testimony of brutal persecution from North Korean authorities
by a Korean escapee, labor camp survivor, more than 320
abductees and other witnesses.

It is by far the most authoritative report about human
rights abuses in North Korean.

The report said that the North Korean people are suffering
"unspeakable atrocities", "No other country can be used as an
analogy to the seriousness of human rights violations, the
extent and nature occurring in North Korea."
The report also stated that the North Korean government tried
to consolidate the regime via political,
religious and ethnic persecution.

Many human rights violations have constituted as
crimes against humanity.
These offenses include human genocide, murder, enslavement,
torture, imprisonment, rape, forced abortion,
forced relocation, forced kidnapping, causing famine etc.

According to the "Voice of America", the Commission can only
gather information by interviewing the victims and witnesses
due to the North Korean authorities forbidding them to enter.

After more than the one year investigation, the Commission got
a lot of first-hand testimony, as well as satellite imagery of
supposedly non-existent concentration camps.

Human Rights Watch organization, Amnesty International
also provided video data to the report, including text and
testimony from escapees, former prison guards, prisoners,
military officers and abducted Korean women.

Amnesty International Staff: "The tape contents are some
interviews of the escapees and prisoners."

A former prison guard for political prisoners told the
Investigation Committee: political prisoners in labor camps
are not treated as human beings and will never be released.

Their records have been permanently erased.
They are doomed to be enslaved to death.
We were trained to treat prisoners as the enemy, so we dare
not treat them as human beings.

Washington China expert, former George Mason University
professor Zhang Tianliang: Based on the UN report, the North
Korean people are actually facing a survival crisis not
because of uncontrollable forces like natural disasters but
due to the state terrorism from their own government.

In this case, the international community is obliged to stop
such a humanitarian disaster by all means.

The report called for the UN Security Council to submit the
North Korean human rights issue to the International Criminal
Court (ICC) and investigate related North Korean officials.

In addition, the report also includes a letter to the
North Korean leader Kim Jong-un from the Committee.
The letter warned Kim Jong-un that he will take personal
responsibility for crimes against humanity according to
international criminal law.

But North Korean authorities denied the allegations raised
by the UN report.
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Hua Chunying also said
on the 17th that China opposed to send the North Korean
leader to the international criminal court because of
human rights allegations.
It's no help to improve a country's human rights situation by
submitting to the International Criminal Court.

The commentators pointed out, comparing to North Korea,
the mainland human rights situation is even worse.
If North Korea is punished, the CCP also played a big part
and that's why the CCP opposed the World Court
to punish North Korea.

Zhang Tianliang: "The CCP's human rights persecution
is also very serious.
It's even worse than North Korea's in terms of the
ratios because North Korea have a total population of 20 million
and just persecute 2 million people.
In China, with only the Falun Gong practitioners,
there are 100 million people.
So in terms of the human persecution scale, the CCP have
conducted serious crimes against humanity in fact and
are worse than North Korea.
So if the international community can intervene in
North Korea, the CCP can intervene in China in
terms of the law."

The UN Human Rights Council will discuss the investigation
report in Geneva, Switzerland of on 17th March.
