Firing Squad if Caught with Bible

80 North Koreans were caught with a Bible which is outlawed.  They were executed by a firing squad on 11/3/13.    Bibles, foreign DVD's, the Internet, cell phones that can make international calls, are all banned.

Eight people were tied to a stake at a local stadium, their heads covered with white sacks, and were shot with a machine gun.  Three generations of the victim's family are also punished.
