Travis King: North Korea responds to request for information on US soldier
in Seoul and Singapore
North Korea has confirmed custody of Travis King in its first response to requests for information on the US soldier's whereabouts, the UN Command has said.The UN Command refused to elaborate on the response "in order not to interfere with our efforts to get him home".The UN Command, which polices the Demilitarised Zone , had sought information on Pvt King using its direct phone line to the North Korean Army in the Joint Security Area.
The North Koreans had previously acknowledged the request, but this is the first time they have responded, confirming the US solider is in their custody.Before he crossed the border, Pvt King served two months in prison in South Korea for assault charges. He was released on 10 July. He was supposed to fly back to the US to face disciplinary proceedings, but managed to give leave the airport and join the DMZ tour.
He is a reconnaissance specialist who had been in the army since January 2021 and was in South Korea as part of his rotation.
