A South Korean official has been shot dead and burned by North Korean troops, said the South’s defence ministry which condemned the “brutal act”.

Seoul said the man had disappeared from a patrol boat near the border and was later found in the North’s waters, reports BBC.

North Korean soldiers shot him, then poured oil over his body and set it aflame, the ministry said. It had come to this conclusion based on “diverse intelligence sources”.

Pyongyang has not commented.

 

 

It is the second time North Korea has reportedly killed a civilian from the South.
