A South Korean man who had been accused of illegally entering the North has been released by the regime.
According to the unification ministry, Pyongyang notified Seoul yesterday that it would be sending him over.
It's not yet known how or why the man, in his mid-thirties, crossed over in the first place.
But the communist state claims he came in illegally and was apprehended roughly two weeks ago.
Sources say he had first flown over to China.
The man is currently being questioned by the South Korean government.
