Just goes to show what a useless, perverted bunch of corruptocrats run the UN.
No Joke: 🇰🇵 NORTH KOREA today reviewed 🇦🇺 Australia's rights record at the UN:
"DPRK is concerned about human rights in Australia. We recommend to Australia: 1) End racism. 2) Cease inhuman treatment in detention centers. 3) Ensure the right of all to participate in elections." pic.twitter.com/BP8Nt5ibas

North Korea detainees subjected to ritual torture and sexual assault – rights group
Prisoners considered ‘less than an animal’ by regime, according to interviews with 15 former detainees by Human Rights Watch
Suspects in North Korea are subjected to ritual torture, humiliation and sexual assault by a criminal justice system that considers them “less than an animal”, according to the first-ever report detailing the brutality of the country’s pretrial detention conditions.
The US-based Human Rights Watch [HRW] said people who are arrested and sent to pretrial detention are placed in cramped, unhygienic cells, forced to confess and denied proper food and clothing.
“Prisoners literally waste away from lack of food unless they can bribe guards to have their families send food,” Phil Robertson, HRW’s Asia deputy director, told reporters on Monday.
The report is based on interviews with 15 women and men who were detained in the country, as well as former officials with knowledge of the criminal justice system.
