Alleged assasinators of North Korean leaders half brother plead not guilty

Alleged assasinators of North Korean leaders half brother plead not guilty: Two women who had been accused of assassinating the estranged half brother of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un with a banned nerve agent had pleaded not guilty, during the start of a high profile murder trial in a Malaysian court on Monday.

Siti Aisyah Indonesian 25 and Doan Thi Huong 28 a Vietnamese, have been charged with the killing of Kim Jong Nam by smearing his face with VX, which is a chemical poison that has been banned by the United Nations, at Kuala Lupur’s international airproat on Feb.13.

Police have also named four North Koreans as suspects in the case and an Interpol red notice, an international alert just short of an arrest warrant, has been issued for the North Koreans, who remain at large.

Prosecutors said the four North Koreans helped the accused women carry out several practice runs in Kuala Lumpur shopping malls.

“The prank practice carried out by the first and second accused with the supervision of the four who are still at large was preparation to see through their common intention to kill the victim,” the prosecution said in its charge sheet.

Defense lawyers demanded that the prosecution immediately name the four other suspects, who have also been charged, so they could prepare their case.

“The charge must be clear,” said Siti Aisyah’s lawyer, Gooi Soon Seng.

Judge Azmi Ariffin dismissed their request.
