’s half-brother want to question a
North Korean diplomat, Malaysia’s top policeman said on Wednesday.Investigators have put five North Koreans in the frame for last week’s brazen killing of Kim Jong-nam at Kuala Lumpur International Airport and have said they are seeking three more for questioning.
They include the embassy’s second secretary, Hyon Kwang-song, as well as a North Korean airline employee called Kim Uk-il, Khalid Abu Bakar told news hounds.
"We have written to the ambassador to allow us to interview both of them. We hope that the Korean embassy will cooperate with us and allow us to interview them quickly. If not, we will compel them to come to us," he said.
Investigators also revealed that attempts were made to break into the morgue where Jong-nam’s body is being held, casting further suspicion on Pyongyang’s role in the killing.
"We knew there were attempts by someone to break into the hospital mortuary. We had to take precautions. We will not allow anyone to tamper with the mortuary," Khalid said.
Jong-nam died on February 13 after being attacked as he waited for a plane to Macau.
Leaked CCTV footage from the airport shows the chubby 45-year-old being approached by two women, one of whom grabs him from behind and appears to shove a cloth in his face.
Moments later Jong-nam is seen seeking help from airport staff, who direct him to a clinic, where he apparently slumped in a chair.
Malaysian police say he suffered a seizure and died before he reached hospital, seemingly from the effects of a toxin.
Seoul has said from the start that Pyongyang was behind the murder, citing a "standing order" from Jong-un to kill his elder sibling, and a failed liquidation bid in 2012.
Asked whether the five North Korean suspects had criminal masterminded the attack, Khalid said he believed they were "heavily involved" in the murder.
Four of the men fled the country on the day of the killing and returned to Pyongyang, he said, while one remains in jug in Malaysia.
