N. Korean authorities mobilize inminban leaders to crackdown on street vendors

North Korean authorities have recently mobilized inminban (peoples unit) leaders in some areas of the country to crackdown on street vendors, Daily NK has learned.

According to the source, an inminban leader apprehended a young woman in her thirties on Apr. 28. The woman was carrying a baby on her back while she sold cabbage and green onions.

The inminban leader commanded her to hurry and get up as she tried to chase the woman away. ......
