オーストラリア連邦警察は17日、国連や豪政府の制裁で禁じられている北朝鮮からのミサイル部品や石炭の輸出取引を仲介したとして、シドニー在住の韓国系豪州人の男(59)を16日に逮捕したと発表した。密輸はいずれも失敗したが、警察は男が北朝鮮の工作員だったとみている。

警察の発表によると、男は、北朝鮮が持つ弾道ミサイルの誘導システムに関するソフトウェアや関連技術の輸出と、北朝鮮産石炭のインドネシアとベトナムへの輸出の二つの取引に関わっていた疑いがある。取引が成功すれば、「数千万豪ドル(数十億円)」の収入を北朝鮮にもたらした可能性があるとみている。

警察は、ミサイル部品を売ろうとしていたとみられる相手について、「国際的な組織」とのみ説明。石炭の取引にはインドネシア、ベトナム両国政府の役人は関与していないとした。

公共放送ABCは男の名前をチャン・ハン・チョイ容疑者と報じた。

捜査は、今年初めに外国の捜査機関から情報提供を受けて始まったという。男は豪州に30年ほど在住。北朝鮮からの様々な輸出を促進し、北朝鮮政府に外貨収入をもたらす役割を担っていたとみられる。押収した資料から、工作員としての活動が2008年ごろまでさかのぼる可能性があるとしている。(シドニー=小暮哲夫)

Australian police accuse man of acting as North Korean economic agent

(CNN)Australian authorities arrested a 59-year-old man for allegedly acting as an economic agent for North Korea with the intent of raising revenue for the Pyongyang government.
The Australian Federal Police identified the man as Chan Han Choi, who is a naturalized Australian citizen originally from South Korea, CNN affiliate Seven Network Australia reported. He lives in Sydney.
Police said the man allegedly brokered the sale of missiles, missile components and expertise from North Korea to other international entities, and discussed the supply of weapons of mass destruction.

He also planned to transfer coal from North Korea to entities in Vietnam and Indonesia, police said. Police said there is no evidence that the governments of those two countries were aware of the plan.
These actions are alleged breaches of UN and Australian sanctions. Recent UN sanctions have targeted everything from seafood exports, foreign labor and joint ventures with North Korea.
The arrested man is facing six charges in connection with the acts.
"This case is like nothing we have ever seen on Australian soil," Australian Federal Police Assistant Commissioner Neil Gaughan
"This is the first time charges have been laid under the Commonwealth Weapons of Mass Destruction Act in Australia, and the first time we have laid charges specifically for alleged breaches of UN sanctions against North Korea."
Choi didn't appear or apply for bail during court on Sunday, and bail was formally refused by Acting Magistrate Carl Milovanovich, the CNN affiliate reported.


Police started investigating the suspect after a tip "from another international agency on another matter."
According to the Seven Network report, Gaughan said the business activity occurred offshore and that "there had been no risk to the Australian public and that no weapons, or missile componentry -- which he said was software-- had been imported into Australia."
"This man was a loyal agent of North Korea, who believed he was acting to serve some higher patriotic purpose," Gaughan said, according to Seven Network Australia.
"I think at the end of the day he would sell whatever he could to make money back for the North Korean government."
The Seven Network report said that "Choi has been charged over two transactions that were unsuccessful, but there may be more."
"But we estimate that if these trades were successful we're talking tens of millions of dollars," he told reporters in Sydney.
Suspect was on police radar
Police allege that:
• "The man provided services to a Weapons of Mass Destruction Program and discussed the sale of specialist services and ballistic missile technology, with a view to generating income for the North Korean regime."
• "Those discussions have included the establishment of a ballistic missile production facility, the supply of missile construction plans and the provision of North Korean technical specialists for training and development outside of North Korea."
• "He discussed the possible sale of missile guidance systems in an effort to generate further income for North Korea."
Gaughan said the man had been under investigation for months. AFP officers conducted search warrants in Sydney on Saturday and the man was "subsequently arrested" in the Sydney suburb of Eastwood.
The maximum penalty for the offenses is 10 years' imprisonment, police said.
"The Australian public should be assured that police have acted to ensure no direct risk to our community. The AFP endeavours to support international efforts to maintain peace and security," Gaughan said in the police statement.
"Any individual who attempts to fly in the face of sanctions cannot and will not go unnoticed in Australia."
More charges against the man have not been ruled out, according to the police statement.
Australia relations with North Korea
Australia is a US ally and its government has voiced support for the United States' policy on North Korea.
Pyongyang has continually assailed Australia as a "vassal country" of the United States in recent releases from North Korean state media.
In early October, a spokesman for the North Korean Foreign Ministry told the country's state-run Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) that Australia's support for the United States in opposing North Korea was a "suicidal act."
"Australia will be unable to avoid a disaster if it keeps toeing the US line of military, economic and diplomatic pressure upon the DPRK despite its repeated warnings," the Foreign Ministry spokesman was quoted as saying.
"It should be prudent in speech and conduct with its own principle, instead of blindly following the US' policy of aggression, and realize that working to develop friendly relations with other countries is the best way to its security."
Australia was one of a number of countries addressed in an open letter from North Korea in October, in which Pyongyang accused the US of declaring war.
The letter followed US President Donald Trump's September address to the United Nations in which he said "the United States has great strength and patience, but if it is forced to defend itself or its allies, we will have no choice but to totally destroy North Korea."Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull and Foreign Minister Julie Bishop said then they believed Pyongyang's letter showed that North Korea was getting desperate as the US and its allies ramped up sanctions on the rogue regime.
"I see it as evidence that the collective strategy of imposing maximum diplomatic and economic pressure through sanctions on North Korea is working," Bishop said.
The Australian navy held joint military exercises with its South Korean and US counterparts off South Korea's coast in November.
South Korea has been a long-term ally of the United States, since the two states fought together during the Korean War in the 1950s.
