Rising Incidents of North Koreans Attacking Police Officers in the Streets
North Korean citizens are fighting back against police officers who have long acted with a heavy hand, hurling insults and doling out beatings on the unsuspecting or even the innocent. The tables are beginning to turn on the officers, with incidents of people protesting against the tyranny of police or even extracting revenge by beating them up occurring across the country. The Kim regime's corruption and economic struggles have caused a famine and countrywide food shortages, leading to a public unafraid of its repressive law enforcement, which could be the beginning of a wider revolt.
