For Covid flouters, North Korean authorities have opened prison camps, naming them "special criminals," with some reportedly dying a day after being placed there.
A new policy has been developed by the North Korean Workers' Party that categorizes as 'special criminals' those who violate quarantine laws, claiming they are guilty of political crimes - despite reports that there has not been one case of the virus in the region.
The camps, which have so far seen 'greatly growing' numbers of quarantine violators, have been approved by Kim Jong-un, the country's chief, reports the Express. A new prison camp was opened in Hwachon, according to a source, that will accommodate the new category of convict.
