It is reported that related trends have been reported to at least the North Korean naval command in relation to the incident where the North fired and burned the body of a Korean government official who was missing in the West Sea.
It is known that it is not known who was the finalist who ordered the shooting.
In a private report by the National Assembly Defense Committee yesterday (on the 24th), the defense committee reported today with the point that "the report has been reported to the North Korean naval command, but it is unknown who decided to kill and gave the order."
In addition, Min Hong-cheol, chairman of the Democratic Party's Defense Commissioner, said in a radio interview, "I received a report that the North Korean high-speed command came and fired."
Chairman Min added, "As a result of synthesizing the intelligence assets of our military, (the Ministry of Defense) judges that this was done by some command chain of the (North Korea) Navy."
He added that the name of the People's Army General Kim Myung-sik, chief officer of the North Korean Navy, was not mentioned in a report by the Ministry of Defense.
When asked if it means that it is difficult to rule out the possibility that the report was raised above the naval command, Chairman Min replied, "It is impossible to exclude it."
