A North Korean mother has been threatened with jail after saving her two children from a house fire but portraits of North Korea's leaders to burn. The woman has been placed under investigation by the country's Ministry of State Security after a fire broke out in their home, North Hamgyong Province, close to the Chinese border. North Korea demands protection of portraits of its past leaders, Kim Il-sung and Kim Jong-il.
