Kim Jong-un has reportedly ordered that divorcing couples be sent to labour camps for up to six months, with women potentially facing longer sentences.

The North Korean leader has declared that ending a marriage demonstrates anti-socialist sympathies and warrants punishment.

If one of the parties is at fault in all cases of divorce why are they both being punished?

This information makes it much more plausible, sure, but it still doesn't prove anything.

Considering the source, i'd need actual evidence that this has been said by the party, any physical evidence of this at all is necessary in my eyes. Legal documents shouldn't be that hard to comeby, the claim is that kim jong un himself said it, is there no recording of this? Why not?

Was this not on their news? Why not?

Considering this source often tells plausible lies, I don't believe them without a shred of evidence

this is the level of lies that source spews out, this being somewhat plausible really just isn't enough when we factor in the source knowingly lies regularly. To me that just means they did their due diligence to make the lie believable.

If the source regularly knowingly lies, plausibility just isn't enough.
