Why Two-year-old Boy Was Sentenced To Life Imprisonment

Why Two-year-old Boy Was Sentenced To Life Imprisonment

 

 

 

 

A two-year-old Boy has been reportedly sentenced to life imprisonment in North Korea over possession of the Holy Bible.

 

 

 

 

 

The toddler is said to have been sentenced to life in a North Korean prison camp after his parents were discovered with a Bible in their home

 

 

 

The shocking tale was revealed by the US State Department’s International Religious Freedom Report.

 

 

 

 

It claimed the two-year-old and his entire family were locked up for their religious beliefs.

 

Several other cases of North Koreans being killed for being Christian were also included in the report, including the firing squad execution of a woman and her grandchild in 2011.

 

Other believers faced “pigeon torture”, where they were suspended with their hands tied behind their backs, unable to sit or stand for days on end.

 

Some were tortured with sleep deprivation including one woman in solitary confinement who was driven to suicide in 2020 after prison guards refused to let her sleep.

 

According to report, as many as 70,000 Christians have been imprisoned for their faith under the Kim Jong-un regime, out of a possible population of 400,000.

The new publication said several North Korean Christians hid their faith from their children.

It cited the finding of one NGO, Open Doors USA (ODUSA), which said: “A Christian is never safe.

“Children are encouraged to tell their teachers about any sign of faith in their parents’ home.”

Another NGO, Korea Future, said children were taught in school about the “evil deeds” of Christian missionaries, including “ rape, blood-sucking, organ harvesting, murder, and espionage”
