North Korean political prison camps growing - Amnesty

A rights group has published satellite images of what it says are North Korea's political prison camps, saying they appear to be growing in size.

In a linked report, Amnesty International also provides new witness testimony to shed light on the conditions in the camps.

The document details accounts of torture, starvation and mass executions of political inmates.

It also calls on Pyongyang to publicly admit the existence of the camps.
