North Korea has sentenced detained American Matthew Miller to six years of hard labor on a conviction of "hostile acts" against Pyongyang.
Miller, in his mid-20s, was arrested in April after ripping up his visa at immigration and demanding asylum in North Korea.
After a brief session Sunday morning, Miller was denied the possibility of appeal.
A trial is also expected soon for Jeffrey Fowle who entered the North as a tourist and was arrested in May for leaving a Bible at a provincial club.
A third U.S. citizen, Korean-American missionary Kenneth Bae, is serving out a 15-year sentence for what Pyongyang says are "hostile acts" intended to overthrow the government.
