Mystery deepens in North Korean embassy break-in after shadowy group claims responsibility.
The dramatic story took another turn when Spanish authorities revealed that Hong Chang, a Mexican citizen and resident of the U.S., apparently passed information on to the FBI in New York days after the incident.
During the incident Spanish authorities said the assailants identified themselves as members of a human rights organization dedicated to regime change in North Korea. The group’s purported leader, Adrian Hong Chang, appears to be the Adrian Hong who was known to North Korean observers for his work with dissidents in the past, according to. In the mid-2000s, when he was a college student, Hong co-founded a group called Liberty in North Korea that was devoted to helping North Korean refugees.
North Korean leader Kim Jong Un holds a military meeting in Pyongyang, North Korea, in this photo released, March 27, 2019. ABC News has been unable to reach Hong Chang for comment. Lee Wolosky, an American attorney for the group, told ABC News in a statement, "The reported comments of the Spanish judge are misinformed in critical aspects and the decision to disclose the names of those opposing a regime that routinely assassinates its opponents is deeply troubling."
