Hokkaido Chongryun office raided

Prosecutors and police raided on Feb. 5 a famous mutton barbecue restaurant in Sapporo and the Hokkaido head office of the North Korea-affiliated group Chongryun on suspicion that the restaurant's operator, once the office's senior official, evaded tens of millions of yen in income tax.

The prosecutors suspect the money saved in the alleged tax evasion was sent to North Korea through Chongryun, which is also known as the General Association of Korean Residents in Japan, investigative sources said.
