North Korean official reportedly executed for breaking coronavirus quarantine
A North Korean official who returned from China has reportedly been executed for going to a public bath in violation of his quarantine – while experts express doubts about Pyongyang's claim that the hermit kingdom doesn't have a single case of the coronavirus.
The trade official, who had been placed in isolation after traveling to China, was arrested and immediately shot for risking the spread of the deadly disease, the Dong-a Ilbo news outlet in South Korea reported.
North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has vowed to "rule by military law" against anyone who leaves quarantine without permission.
