North Korea has built a large and imposing new headquarters complex for its Central Public Prosecutors Office (CPPO) on the outskirts of Pyongyang, according to NK Pro analysis of state media, revealing the office’s growing stature as leader Kim Jong Un uses the judicial sector to crack down on corruption undermining his rule.

The campus covers a 37-acre (15-hectare) area and features several administrative buildings, an auditorium, gym and possibly an underground facility. Satellite imagery shows it was built over five years between 2014 and 2019 but only recently received its all-important leadership monument, for unclear reasons.[/p
