Pyongyang has again urged South Korea to return some 460 North Korean asylum-seekers to their homeland four times in the last two days.
In a complaint aired by Radio Pyongyang Saturday, the North repeated its demand that South Korea immediately repatriate the North Koreans Pyongyang claims were ?kidnapped.? Radio Pyongyang had also aired similar demands the previous day.
The North's demands were also made in a dispatch of the country's state-run KCNA News Agency earlier on Friday, which denounced South Korean authorities as "wicked terrorists" who orchestrated a plot to kidnap its civilians en masse to bring down the communist system.
On July 27th, a total of 241 defectors arrived in Seoul, following another 227 the day before, completing the single largest mass defection since the nation was divided into South and North in 1945.
