Korea, Nov. 27- In a dramatic move, immigration authorities arrested the entire leadership of the Migrant Trade Union (MTU). A union of undocumented migrant workers, MTU recently had held a mass memorial service for migrants that had died in Korea, and won a precedent-setting case at the Seoul High court which had ruled that the government must accept the legal registration of MTU. Unionists say that the recent arrests appear a tactic of authorities to circumvent the high court ruling and is part of a targeted crackdown aimed at repressing their movement for labour and human rights.
