Pyongyang, July 30 (KCNA) -- Rim Hyon Su, Korean reverend in Canada, was interviewed at the People's Palace of Culture on Thursday.

 Rev. Rim was accused of making subversive plots and activities against the DPRK.

 Present there were officials concerned, Korean media persons and those of the General Association of Korean Residents in Japan, foreign correspondents, staff members of diplomatic missions here and overseas Koreans staying in the socialist homeland.

 The DPRK's law enforcement organ arrested Rim who acted as a servant of the U.S. imperialists and south Korean puppet group. He malignantly hurt the dignity of the supreme leadership and social system of the DPRK and resorted to subversive plots and activities in a sinister bid to build a religious state in the DPRK while frequenting it under the guise of "humanitarian aid" and "free donation" over the past 18 years.

 He confessed to all his crimes in the course of the investigation by the competent organ.
 He spoke first at the press conference.

 He illegally entered Pyongyang via Rason City in violation of the DPRK's emergency measure to prevent the spread of Ebola in last February. He is, therefore, under legal investigation by the DPRK's relevant organ.

 He went on:
 I have so far malignantly defamed the dignity and social system of the DPRK, pursuant to the scenario of the U.S. and the south Korean regime, visiting the DPRK under the signboard of "humanitarian aid", "free donation" and "cooperation".

I delivered a "report on what is going on in north Korea" before tens of thousands of south Koreans and overseas Koreans at sermon on Sundays at my church and during preaching tours of more than 20 countries including Canada, the U.S., south Korea, Japan and Brazil. Each time I malignantly slandered the dignity and social system of the DPRK. (more)
