North Korea confirms Kim Jong-Un uncle purged

A South Korean man watches TV news about the alleged dismissal of Jang Song-Thaek, North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un's uncle, at a railway station in Seoul on December 3, 2013North Korea confirmed Monday that the powerful uncle of the nation's young leader Kim Jong-Un had been purged, accusing him of building a rival power base and being a corrupt, drug-using womaniser. Jang Song-Thaek, once seen as the hardline regime's political regent, has been stripped of his titles for committing criminal acts and leading a "counter-revolutionary faction", state news agency KCNA said. The announcement came after South Korea's spy agency said last week that Jang had been purged and two associates executed, nearly two years after Kim Jong-Un succeeded his father Kim Jong-Il as leader in 2011. The husband of Kim Jong-Il's powerful sister, Kim Kyong-Hui, Jang was seen as instrumental in cementing Kim Jong-Un's hold on power in the tricky transition period after his father's death.
