US activist Park to be freed
The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) said on Friday it would release US religious activist Robert Park, arrested in December for illegally entering the country in a journey to raise awareness about Pyongyang's human rights abuses. Park walked over the frozen Tumen river from China and into the DPRK on Christmas Day, other activists who helped him said.
