North Korean defector Son’s life marked by exile and torture
The account traces Son, a sergeant in 1983, through anti-regime hardship. After his wife’s miscarriage amid alleged provocations, they fled to China with their daughter in 1998. A South Korean missionary influenced his turn to Christianity, and authorities arrested him in 2001 for proselytizing. Deported to North Korea, he endured torture, recaptured in 2006, and died in a Pyongyang prison in 2008.
