Free Ro Su Hui!

 By New Worker correspondent

NCP leader Andy Brooks joined a picket of the south Korean embassy in London last week to demand the release of the south Korean peace activist arrested in July after he returned from a visit to the north. Ro was arrested and detained by the south Korean puppet regime under the so-called "National Security Law" which punishes south Koreans for visiting north Korea or sympathising with it in anyway.

The 1^st  November protest was organised by the International Committee for the Release of Ro Su Hui which is supported by the NCP and a number of Juche and Korean solidarity movements in Britain and abroad. Dermot Hudson, the secretary of the new campaign, read out demands for Ro Su Hui’s release throughout the picket as well as messages of support from the Swiss Korea Committee and the  Anti-Imperialist National Democratic Front of south Korea (AINDF).
