Coss Posted February 27, 2017 Report Share Posted February 27, 2017 If you've been following this, it just gets more interesting every day. 1st he's killed at the airport 2nd North Korea (NK) denies it is him, despite the airport being in Malaysia, and NK denying any North Koreans where anywhere near the place, so how do they know? 3rd they demand the body, be delivered to the NK embassy immediately, (still not him) 4th they assert the body, who is not Kim Jong Nam has diplomatic immunity 5th they demand that there is no autopsy carried out on the body who is not Kim Jong Nam 6th there is a failed attempt to break in to the morgue where the body is kept. 7th Malaysia won't release the body except to next of kin, any Kim Jongs in the neighbourhood? Two women are duped into smearing vx on his face. - an extremely toxic organophosphate, is a tasteless and odorless liquid with an amber-like color that severely disrupts the body's nervous system and is used as a nerve agent in chemical warfare. All the while NK is spitting tacks in public missives at the Malaysians who apparently are, well, pretty evil anyway. So, below a selection of headlines and excerpts: --- A man believed to be Kim Jong-nam is pictured in this May 4, 2001 file photo. He was the heir apparent to lead North Korea. But a falling out with his father instead led to a life of exile for Kim Jong-nam – until last week when he died of apparent poisoning at Kuala Lumpur airport To his school friends, he was Lee, or on his Facebook page, Kim Chol. To the customs officers looking at his fake passports, he was Pang Xiong, a Chinese name that translates to “Fat Bear.†To more recent acquaintances, he was simply Mister Kim, the studied bon vivant with the sushi restaurant who thought Donald Trump was crazy, occasionally travelled with a pair of female bodyguards and warned friends that his brother was out to kill him. But his death, amid bizarre circumstances in Malaysia, exposed a series of plot twists that has, so far, included an aspiring Vietnamese singer alleged to be one of the killers, a chemical weapons attack in an international airport, a rare press conference conducted by officials in one of the world’s most hermetic regimes and even allegations of an attempted break-in at a morgue holding his body. Kim Jong-nam – the eldest son of North Korea’s Dear Leader – was the globe-trotting princeling and onetime heir apparent to a family dynasty that rules with vicious authority over one of the world’s most cloistered nations. --- Malaysia has summoned the North Korean ambassador over his accusation that it was conspiring with "hostile forces" as it investigates the murder of leader Kim Jong-un's half-brother. Malaysia also recalled its envoy to Pyongyang after a spat erupted when North Korean demands to hand over the body of Kim Jong-nam were rejected. "The ministry emphasised that as the death occurred on Malaysian soil under mysterious circumstances, it is the responsibility of the Malaysian government to conduct an investigation to identify the cause of death," a foreign ministry statement said after a meeting with the North Korean ambassador. Ambassador Kang Chol last week accused Malaysia of colluding with "hostile forces" to damage the North, after rival South Korea said Pyongyang had orchestrated the airport attack. Reputation tarnished Malaysia views the complaint as "baseless", the foreign ministry statement said. "The Malaysian government takes very seriously any unfounded attempt to tarnish its reputation," it said. "The Malaysian ambassador in Pyongyang has been recalled to Kuala Lumpur for consultations." --- Kim Jong-nam murder: North Korea blames Malaysia for death of 'DPRK Citizen' North Korea has blamed Malaysia for the death of one of its citizens and has accused it of an "unfriendly attitude" in a scenario drawn up by South Korea, according to Pyongyang's state-run KCNA news agency. The agency said South Korea accused Pyongyang agents of assassinating the North Korean leader's half-brother. Who killed him? Officials and independent experts all say Kim Jong-nam's assassination looks like the work of North Korean agents. Malaysia had initially told North Korea the person bearing a diplomatic passport had died after suffering a heart attack at Kuala Lumpur airport on February 13, KCNA news agency said. KCNA, citing a spokesman for a state committee, said Malaysia quickly changed its position and started to complicate the matter after reports surfaced in South Korea the man was poisoned to death. "What merits more serous attention is the fact that the unjust acts of the Malaysian side are timed to coincide with the anti-DPRK conspiratorial racket launched by the South Korean authorities," KCNA said, using the North's formal name of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. KCNA, in the first official media report of the killing, did not name Kim Jong-nam as the person who died on the way to the hospital or acknowledge he was the estranged half-brother of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, referring to him only as "a citizen of the DPRK" --- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coss Posted March 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2017 North Korea spy agency runs arms operation out of Malaysia, U.N. says It is in Kuala Lumpur's "Little India" neighborhood, behind an unmarked door on the second floor of a rundown building, where a military equipment company called Glocom says it has its office. Glocom is a front company run by North Korean intelligence agents that sells battlefield radio equipment in violation of United Nations sanctions, according to a United Nations report submitted to the Security Council seen by Reuters. Reuters found that Glocom advertises over 30 radio systems for "military and paramilitary" organizations on its Malaysian website, glocom.com.my. Glocom's Malaysian website, which was taken down late last year, listed the Little India address in its contacts section. No one answers the door there and the mailbox outside is stuffed with unopened letters....
