N. Korea says detained American hoped to be a “second Snowden”

In detailed report, KCNA article accuses Miller of espionage

North Korean state media has said that detained American Matthew Miller hoped to be a "second Snowden" and a "world famous guy", in a detailed report of his alleged crimes in an article released on Saturday.

In an extensive report, the North Korean government claims that Miller entered the DPRK under the guise of being a tourist for the sole purpose of being placed in a prison camp so he could, in turn, collect evidence of human rights violations within the country.
