N. Korea arresting carriers of $1 bills to stop anti-Pyongyang leaflets: activist
By Kim Hyun SEOUL, Jan. 7 (Yonhap) -- North Korea is arresting citizens who possess U.S. one dollar bills as a way to crack down on packages of anti-Pyongyang propaganda leaflets sent by South Korean activists that include the currency, an activist here said Wednesday.
The North's spy agency, the State Security Agency, issued the directive in early November to stop citizens from collecting the leaflets that criticize leader Kim Jong-il and his communist regime, said Park Sang-hak, a North Korean defector and leader of Fighters For Free North Korea in Seoul.
