He says the US holds North Korea accountable for Warmbier's "unjust imprisonment" and demands the release of three other "illegally detained" Americans. Warmbier had been released by Pyongyang days earlier after 17 months in state prison.

Mr Warmbier, who was jailed for trying to steal a propaganda sign from a hotel, did not regain consciousness. Fifteen years at hard labor.
North Korean officials claimed Warmbier fell into a coma in March past year due to botulism and a sleeping pill.
