North Korean Naval Commander Digitally Removed from State Media Images

This guy is definitely rotting away in a gulag somewhere judging by these actions:

 North Korea appears to have edited recent state media images to remove a top naval commander after last month’s failed launch of a new warship, NK News has reported.

In state media footage aired Friday on the relaunch ceremony of the 5,000-ton Kang Kon destroyer, Kim Myong-sik, the North’s former chief navy commander, was notably absent from images showing leader Kim Jong-un’s earlier inspection of the warship’s construction.

Hong Kil-ho, manager of the Chongjin Shipyard — where an incident involving the destroyer reportedly occurred — also appeared to have been deleted from the images.

NK News said state media has not commonly deleted officials from photos since the 2013 execution of Jang Song-thaek, an uncle of the North’s leader who was purged from senior leadership.
