[SCMP] Two women accused of assassinating Kim Jong-nam with a lethal nerve agent were Wednesday charged with murder.Earlier, Malaysian Attorney General Mohammed Apandi Ali said that the two women -- Indonesian Siti Aisyah and Vietnamese Doan Thi Huong -- would face a mandatory death sentence if convicted. The pair arrived at the isolated courthouse outside the capital in a police van, part of a convoy of 20 vehicles escorted by police outriders. The van and the entrance to the building were secured by more than 100 heavily armed police wearing balaclavas and wielding automatic weapons. The women entered the building wearing t-shirts, surrounded by a scrum of news hounds and police. Posted by: Fred 2017-03-01 |
