More than 150 people rallied in New York December 31 to protest the acquittal of two U.S. soldiers who killed two schoolgirls in south Korea when they hit them with a 50-ton mine-clearing vehicle. Kwan-Ho Choi, chair of the executive committee of the Congress for Korean Reunification, told demonstrators that the U.S. military had tried to cover up the crime by using a fabricated story. He said the protest was called to "commemorate the deaths of the two girls and to condemn the arrogance of the U.S. forces in south Korea."
