The
Supreme Leader of North Korea, Kim Jong-un, has ordered the execution
of the leader of an aquarium after dozens of baby turtles starved to
death, according to DailyNK, an Asian news agency.
The North Korean tyrant was seen angrily
wagging his finger at staff during a visit to the terrapin farm recently
in pictures released by the state media.
He launched into a tirade after workers
claimed many baby reptiles were dying because of the country’s frequent
power outages and a lack of adequate food supplies. The Supreme Leader
then ordered the execution of the terrapin farm’s manager, who was taken
outside and shot to death.
An unnamed North Korean source said: “The
manager was shot and killed after Kim Jong-un made his field guidance
tour to the terrapin farm near Taedong River in Pyongyang.
“He
was executed because some of the tanks were not adequately supplied
with food and water, leading to the death of a lot of terrapins.”
The young leader reportedly wanted to
‘set an example’ and ordered the boss to be executed, two separate North
Korea insiders also claimed.
Kim Jong-un is no stranger to capital
punishment. He has ordered the executions of 1,382 people since the year
2000, a report from the Korean Institute for National Unification
claimed this week. Last month he executed his new airport architect
because he didn’t like the design.
