KUALA LUMPUR (Reuters) - Kim Jong Nam, the estranged half-brother of North Korean's leader, met a United States national at a Malaysian island hotel days before his sensational killing last February, a police official told a court hearing on Monday.

Two women, Indonesian Siti Aisyah and Doan Thi Huong, a Vietnamese, have been charged with four North Korean fugitives for the murder. Prosecutors say the women smeared his face with VX, a lethal chemical poison at Kuala Lumpur airport on Feb. 13.

Defence lawyers say the women thought they were playing a prank for a reality show. They face the death penalty, if convicted.

I disagree.  Circle gets the square.

Siti Aisyah's lawyer, Gooi Soon Seng, had questioned Wan Azirul on a May 2017 report in the Japanese daily, Asahi Shimbun, that Kim had met a U.S. intelligence agent in Langkawi.

The report said Kim was believed to have passed a large amount of data to the agent, citing a Malaysian forensics analysis of a laptop found in Kim's backpack after his death.



This is interesting.

This is a bullshit story crafted on lying witnesses with faulty memories, two dopey women who will say anything to save their lives and Reuters who seem to be spinning that this murder was justified because this dude was supposedly leaking NORK secrets to an American. Total garbage.
