Revolutionary group that raided North Korean Embassy establishes contact with FBI

John Hudson, The Washington Post Published 12:36 pm EDT, Thursday, March 21, 2019

 

The revolutionary group that carried out a brazen daytime raid of North Korea's Embassy in Spain last month has shared information about the incident with the FBI, said people familiar with the meeting.

 

The decision by the group to engage federal authorities thrusts the U.S. intelligence community into a sensitive international investigation led by Spanish authorities, who have not publicly identified any suspects in the mysterious Feb. 22 operation.

It comes as the Trump administration seeks to improve ties with North Korea and negotiate a deal to eliminate its nuclear weapons program after decades of failed negotiations and mutual distrust.

 

Any substantive ties between the group and U.S. authorities could complicate the nuclear negotiations given the organization's stated mission of overthrowing and replacing North Korea's Kim dynasty. The secretive group calls itself Free Joseon, but is also known as Cheollima Civil Defense.

 

On Thursday, the group released a video of one of its members destroying portraits of North Korea's founder, Kim Il Sung, and his son and successor, Kim Jong Il. The captions of the 34-second clip exclaim "Down with Kim family rule!" and claim it took place on "our homeland's soil," suggesting the footage was possibly shot inside the North Korean Embassy in Madrid.

 

Any desecration of the leaders' image is punishable by death inNorth Korea, given the Kim family's self-ordained god-like status and could invite a harsh response from Pyongyang.

 

The raid on the embassy generated international headlines last week after Spanish authorities released details about the incident, telling reporters it was carried out by 10 masked assailants who entered the embassy with fake firearms, tied up the staff and interrogated them.

SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) โ€” The Latest on a sheriffโ€™s deputy killed in Washington state (all times local):

 

2:45 p.m.

 

The federal government says the man who killed a sheriffโ€™s deputy and wounded a police officer in a central Washington state shootout was in the United States illegally.

 

The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency said Thursday that 29-year-old Juan Manuel Flores Del Toro, who also died as a result of the shootout, was a citizen of Mexico.

 

The agency says he entered the U.S. in 2014 at Laredo, Texas, on a temporary agricultural worker visa.

 

The agency says it has no record of Flores Del Toro leaving the country or extending his visa.
