Korea Purge of Japanese Collaborators Proceeds Slowly
In newly compiled figures as of June 1946, Korea reports a slow purge of former collaborators with Japan. Only 345 warrants issued and 321 arrests made since the 1948 law, with 307 trials, amid mixed views on motives. Notable arrests include figures tied to Japan’s peerage and historic offices, reflecting broad but uneven action across banks, government offices, railways, and police.
