Kim Jong-un to punish North Korea’s Olympics team?

North Korea Olympics Team members may be punished by Supreme leader, Kim Jong-Un, after failing to meet the number of medals required of them, The Sun UK reports.

Kim Jong-un had warned his country’s athletes to return with at least 5 gold medals and 12 other medals.

He had threatened to send them to work at the coal mines if they failed to meet his medal quota.

However, the team returned to Pyongyang with just seven medals, including two gold – far from what was expected of them.

Toshimitsu Shigemura, an expert on the nation said:
“Those who won medals will be rewarded with better housing allocations, better rations, a car and maybe other gifts from the regime.

“But Kim is going to be angry and disappointed at these results.

“Those he feels have let him down are likely to be punished by being moved to poorer quality housing, having their rations reduced and, in the worst-case scenario, being sent to the coal mines as punishment.”

It has been reported that some of the country’s sport personalities had been sent to the coal mines for abysmal performance in the past.

Recall that Zimbabwean President, Robert Mugabe had also ordered the arrest of the country’s Olympic team for failing to win a medal at the games. Mugabe had called them ‘rats’.
