Rodong Sinmun / Yonhap via Reuters, file Kim Jone Un's uncle Jang Song Thaek is dragged into court by uniformed personnel prior to last
month's execution.

BEIJING -- North Korean leader Kim Jong Un's powerful uncle was stripped naked, thrown into a cage, and eaten alive by a pack of ravenous dogs, according to a newspaper with close ties to China's ruling Communist Party.

Jang Song Thaek, who had been considered Kim's second-in-command, was executed last month after being found guilty of "attempting to overthrow the state," North Korea’s state-run news agency reported.

The official North Korean account on Dec. 12 did not specify how Jang was put to death.
U.S. officials told NBC News on Friday that they could not confirm the reports. "This is not ringing any bells here," said one senior official.

Hong Kong-based pro-Beijing newspaper Wen Wei Po reported that Jang and his five closest aides were set upon by 120 hunting hounds which had been starved for five days.

Kim and his brother Kim Jong Chol supervised the one-hour ordeal along with 300 other officials, according to Wen Wei Po. The newspaper added that Jang and other aides were "completely eaten up."

The newspaper has acted as a mouthpiece for China's Communist Party. The report may be a sign of the struggle between those in the party who want to remain engaged with North Korea and those who would like to distance themselves from Kim's regime.

Jang was seen by many experts as a regent behind North Korea's Kim dynasty and a key connection between the hermit nation and its ally China.

In the highly scripted execution, North Korea accused him of "attempting to overthrow the state by all sorts of intrigues and despicable methods with a wild ambition to grab the supreme power of our party and state."

Kim's government also accused him of of corruption, womanizing, gambling and taking drugs, and referred to him as "despicable human scum."

Jang was married to Kim's aunt, Kim Kyong Hui, the younger sister of Kim Jong Il.

Vicious North Korean Dictator Executed His Uncle By Feeding Him To Dogs

When the news broke last week that North Korean dictator Kim Jong-Un had executed his own uncle, the reaction was bemusement mixed with a tinge of horror. We didn’t know how bad it really was.
According to an official state report, after Jang Song-Thaek was found guilty of treason, he was stripped of his clothing, thrown into a cage, and fed to 120 dogs who were starved for several days beforehand.


Kim Jong-Un personally supervised the execution by dogs, called “quan jue,” with several of his officials. The execution lasted an hour, with 5 of Jang’s aides also thrown in the cage and devoured by dogs. Here is what his uncle supposedly did to get on his bad side, as reported by the Mirror:

• State media denounced Jang, 67, as being “worse than a dog” and “despicable human scum” after a military show trial.
  
• He was accused of forming factions against the state, corruption and ‘depraved’ acts such as womanising and drug and alcohol abuse.
  
• The list of offences also included introducing disastrous currency reforms and distributing pornography.
  
• It was also claimed he pursued a “decadent capitalist lifestyle”, squandering £3million in 2009, some in a foreign casino.
  

What a horrifyingly evil tyrant. Part of the reason North Korea is allowed such terrifying acts is their possession of nuclear arms. Think about this as the Obama administration continues its incompetent slide towards allowing Iran to develop nukes.
