- The nuclear tests have also exposed North Koreans to radiation
Pyongyang, North
Korea - In a shocking expose, a report quoting several North Korean
defectors has revealed that the increasing nuclear tests in the
reclusive nation have given birth to a ghost disease.
According to several defectors, who are said to have managed to escape North Korea,
Kim Jong Un’s nuclear
tests have contaminated North Koreans with a 'ghost' disease that
deforms babies and leaves civilians with horrifying radiation sickness.
The report stated
that around 30 defectors have fled across the border to South Korea from
the Kilju region, close to the Punggye-ri site.
It is at this site that Kim Jong Un has continued his father's furious testing since coming to power in 2011.
One of the defectors
quoted in the report was Lee Jeong Hwan, who suffers from chronic pain
and was tested by South Korean scientists to have been as a result of
radiation from the test bombs.
Lee's results came back negative, but she has blamed the North Korean dictator for the suffering.
She said, “So many
people died we began calling it 'ghost disease'. We thought we were
dying because we were poor and we ate badly. Now we know it was the
radiation.”
The WHO has said that exposure to radiation can harm the functioning of the body’s tissues and organs.
It said that even lower doses of radiation can significantly increase the long-term risk of a person developing cancer.
Meanwhile, another
defector added that she lived just a few miles from the test site and
witnessed her neighbors having a deformed baby.
Rhee Yeong Sil
explained, “We couldn't determine the gender of the baby because it
didn't have any genitals. In North Korea, deformed babies are usually
killed. So the parents killed the baby.”
Both the defectors quoted said that they had no idea what the nuclear tests were while living under the North Korean rule.
They said that they only realized what the tremors were after escaping.
Scientists, however,
have said that the 'victims' do not have all the information they need
to prove any of the ill-health was caused by the radiation.
According to a
professor of nuclear engineering at Seoul National University,
Kune-yull, said, “I don't think they're lying. We have to take their
word, but I don't have much reliable information.”
Kune-yull has blamed a ‘total lack of data’ for the confusion.
